Bob Kinford has spent decades ranching cattle. He explains how low-stress handling keeps herds calm and together naturally, which means better weight gain, less work, and easier grazing control.

I'm Bob Kinford. I've been working ranches since the '70s as an adult, since the '60s as a kid. I've always been kind of an oddball. Why do these big herds come together? When do they come together? None of it's rocket science. You've witnessed these cattle going from wild to mild. When those cattle are more content, they're going to gain better. You're going to use less labor doing it. You can control where they're grazing, how long they're going to be grazing for, and just to show how well that cattle will stay in an area if you let them, we handle the cattle in a way that has less stress on the cattle to where they just want to be together. Just enjoy working with your cattle.
