Oh, right.
They've got specific like breeding lines in each of these herds, right?
You know, it's interesting.
I think people often don't necessarily think of Oklahoma and Kansas as like fire country, but I guess with climate change now, the whole country is fire country.
Well, and the fires are just sort of one issue facing the ag industry right now.
You recently reported on data showing that the agricultural workforce, the federal agricultural workforce in Oklahoma, shrunk by like 18 percent in the first half of 2025.
What's going on there?
And what does that mean for Oklahoma's ag industry?
Another thing that, well, is not happening now, which you've also been reporting on, is about how the USDA has stopped tracking hunger in the United States.
They used to put out an annual survey on hunger, the Household Food Security Report.
The USDA has stopped doing that.
And, you know, I was reading your story about it and you really got into sort of what's behind that decision and also what it's going to mean moving forward.
It's kind of wild that Oklahoma ranks so high in hunger when it does have such a big agriculture industry.
But at the same time, it's not all doom and gloom for the entire ag industry in Oklahoma.
I understand that beef cattle ranchers are doing all right.
Other than the fires, they're doing all right financially, right?
Well, and I suppose next week you're going to be checking in with all those ranchers about how this tariff ruling is going to be impacting them as well.
Well, Anna, thank you so much for that check-in from Oklahoma.
We are going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to play a round of Half Full, Half Empty.
All right, we are back with Anna Pope of Harvest Public Media and KOSU.
