432: The Worst Advice I’ve Ever Been Given in Agriculture

<p>After looking at some of the best advice on a previous episode, your Cattle USA Daily host, Lauren Moylan, is back to take a look at some of the worst advice she’s heard throughout her time in agriculture. From “that’s just the way we’ve always done it” to “work harder,” “don’t worry about the numbers,” and “wait until you’re ready,” Lauren breaks down why advice that sounds good isn’t always good for your operation. This episode is a reminder that challenging old ideas doesn’t mean disrespecting tradition. Producers should be willing to ask whether advice still fits their operation, goals, data and the future they’re trying to build.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Links:</p><p>CattleUSA Insurance - <a href="https://info.cattleusainsurance.com/l/1102253/2025-06-04/288f5m">https://info.cattleusainsurance.com/l/1102253/2025-06-04/288f5m</a><br>⁠CattleUSA Website - <a href="https://www.cattleusa.com/">https://www.cattleusa.com/</a><br>CattleUSA App IOS: <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/cattleusa/id1673147759">https://apps.apple.com/us/app/cattleusa/id1673147759</a><br>CattleUSA App Android: <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.edgarmcbee.cusamobile&pcampaignid=web_share">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.edgarmcbee.cusamobile&amp;pcampaignid=web_share</a><br>Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/cattleusamedia">https://www.facebook.com/cattleusamedia</a><br>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cattleusa.media/">https://www.instagram.com/cattleusa.media/</a><br>Subscribe to our newsletter - <a href="https://www.cattleusa.shop/products/cattleusa-drive-premium-daily-newsletter?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&brid=YWdncwFNXt0EmdzFy5cJJBp84J9g">https://www.cattleusa.shop/products/cattleusa-drive-premium-daily-newsletter?utm_source=ig&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=link_in_bio&amp;brid=YWdncwFNXt0EmdzFy5cJJBp84J9g</a><br>CattleUSA Media - <a href="https://www.cattleusamedia.com/">https://www.cattleusamedia.com/</a><br>Lauren’s Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_laurenmoylan/">https://www.instagram.com/_laurenmoylan/</a><br>Lauren’s Youtube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@Showboatmediaco">https://www.youtube.com/@Showboatmediaco</a><br>The Next Generation Podcast Website - <a href="https://www.thenextgenag.com/">https://www.thenextgenag.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li>Tradition should
