VALENTINE, Neb. (RFD-TV) — Many producers find themselves returning to the family operation after pursuing higher education. That was the case for RanchHER Jaclyn Wilson of Wilson Flying Diamond Beef, a fifth-generation cattle producer in Nebraska’s Sandhills.
On this week’s episode of FarmHER + RanchHER, host Kirbe Schnoor travels to Wilson’s ranch to see how she blends tradition and technology to raise elite Red Angus cattle.
Wilson joined us on Wednesday’s Market Day Report to preview the upcoming episode and share her perspective on balancing family heritage with innovation in ranching. She discussed her return to the family operation, her passion for Red Angus genetics, and how her story reflects a broader trend of young producers bringing new ideas back to rural America.
