Billy Rose explained how AcreShield provides yield protection by offering farmers hybrid seed selection tools based on comprehensive, independent trial data. This allows farmers to choose the best-performing hybrids for their fields and mitigate risk through AcreShield's proprietary insurance products, ensuring that farmers are financially protected when yields fall between 85% and 100% of the target.

Farmers using the Yield Optimizer program benefit from a tailored approach, combining data-driven hybrid selection with financial protection to close the yield gap, ultimately boosting profitability despite external challenges.

Welcome back to another exciting episode of the Farm4Profit Podcast, where we dig deep into the heart of modern farming and ranching. Today, we've got a real treat for you as we introduce a guest who's as passionate about ranching as he is about cooking up a storm in the kitchen.

Our guest today is none other than River Klass, the charismatic host of "Ranch America," a show that takes you on a journey through the rugged landscapes and fascinating lives of ranchers across the country. Raised on a family ranch in Calaveras County, California, River has lived the authentic cowboy life, balancing his love for the land with his culinary talents.

River isn't just a rancher—he’s a chef, an entrepreneur, and a storyteller. He's spent his life not only working the land but also sharing the stories of those who dedicate their lives to it. From raising cattle with his wife Marci and their team at Calaveras Cowgirl Beef to running two popular restaurants in Murphys, CA, River knows what it takes to make ranching and farming a way of life, not just a job.

In today’s episode, we’ll hear some incredible stories—like how drones are replacing horses on the ranch, the tale of a $1.4 million bull, and the unforgettable experience of a Highland cow ranch visit. And of course, we'll dive into some lively discussions, touching on everything from protecting animals throughout their lives to the best cuts of meat, the importance of innovation in farming, and even what happens when wine meets cows.

So, whether you're tuning in from the cab of your tractor or listening while tending to your herd, get ready for an episode packed with laughter, inspiration, and a whole lot of ranching wisdom. Let’s welcome River Klass to the Farm4Profit Podcast!

Wine Growers Bios

Steve Sangiacomo is a third-generation partner at Sangiacomo Family Vineyards, located in Sonoma, California

where his family has farmed since 1927. He grew up on the ranch and began learning the ropes from his father and

extended family at a young age. As far back as he can remember, he clamored to tag along with his father and

uncles during early morning frost protection after which he enjoyed a special treat — doughnuts. He took to the

fields early and recalls jumping off a tractor to race to seventh-grade orientation. In his early 20s, he began

learning the family business from the ground up and in his 30s he and his brother Mike took over the reins.

Mike Sangiacomo is a third-generation partner at Sangiacomo Family Vineyards, located in Sonoma, California,

where his family has farmed since 1927. He has lived and breathed agriculture from the day he was born. His

grandfather taught him how to prune fruit trees from the ground up when he was eight years old and was too

short to climb the ladder. Later he was thrilled when, at age 12, his uncle Buck let him drive the fork lift during

harvest. Shortly thereafter he began assisting at the inspection station for pears as they were sorted for the

canneries. When the family business transitioned from orchards to vineyards he began learning the intricacies of

grapegrowing and has never looked back.

About Sangiacomo Wines:

Farming is in our blood. As third-generation farmers in Sonoma, we’ve upheld our family’s tradition of growing

premium grapes since planting our first vines in 1969. Our Sangiacomo wines reflect our passion for the region,

focusing on complexity, freshness, and terroir. We farm over 1600 acres of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay across 15

vineyards in four AVAs: Carneros, Sonoma Coast, Petaluma Gap, and Sonoma Valley, with additional Cabernet

Sauvignon in Oakville, Napa Valley. Each vineyard block is farmed with an artisanal approach, highlighting the

unique microclimates and soil diversity of our land.
