November 25, 2019
Ben Randle is general manager at GDW Farms LLC, a turkey farm in West Olive, MI. After a career as an electrician, Ben took on a new role as a farmer, where he helps raise turkeys from one day to 20 weeks old.
Listen as Ben talks about:
- How 20-week old turkeys are like ornery 18-year-old boys
- Why he became a part of the school board
- How he can control 28 buildings from his phone – especially useful at 2:00 a.m. in February
- Antibiotics, marketing, the attack on protein, and how to best care for animals
- Vacations with his wife, hunting with his kids, and joking about all of them
