Energy Independence, Farming Challenges, and Normandy Cattle with Rhonda Tremi-Knebel
Trent warns that government spending and national debt are spiraling out of control, with little urgency from leaders to address it. He also emphasizes the importance of U.S. oil production and America’s God-given ability to be energy independent, instead of relying on foreign nations. Trent raises tough questions about ethanol, revealing that while farmers put in the hard work, they aren’t the ones reaping the biggest financial rewards.
In the second half, Trent welcomes Rhonda Tremi-Knebel, a Wisconsin rancher raising Normandy cattle, a historic breed from the Normandy region of France. Rhonda explains what makes the breed unique, how their genetics set them apart, and how selective breeding over the years has shaped livestock to provide the best traits for ranchers and consumers alike. This powerful discussion blends modern challenges with timeless agricultural traditions.
