Surviving Wildfires and Building a Legacy with Kyle and Tonya Perez

What does it take to ranch in a place where wildfires can move faster than you can react, pastures stretch for miles, and every cow must prove herself?

In this episode of Over the Hump, hosts visit with Kyle and Tanya Perez of Perez Cattle Company in New Mexico. From battling devastating wildfires to building one of the region's respected Hereford and Angus seedstock programs, the Perez family shares an honest look at life in the cattle business.

Kyle and Tanya discuss the realities of ranching in the High Plains, including managing cattle across vast landscapes, rebuilding after fire, and selecting genetics that thrive in tough conditions. They also share how their family balances ranching, business ownership, marketing, embryo transfer programs, and raising twins who are growing up immersed in the agricultural lifestyle.

Whether you're a seedstock producer, commercial cattleman, or simply interested in rural America, this conversation offers valuable insights into resilience, stewardship, and the future of the cattle industry.
