Ranchers Take Leap to Come Into Their Own

 

RC and Sherry lite

RC Crutcher, a fourth generation rancher, grew up ranching with his parents on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation in Owyhee, Nev. RC and his wife Claudia, their two daughters, Journie and Paisley, love the ranching life.

So when RC and his family decided to branch off on their own, they turned to the Farm Service Agency.

“We helped RC and his family to get started ranching on their own,” said Farm Loan Specialist Chris Wood. “We provided credit for annual operating expenses and a term loan to purchase cattle.”

RC is determined to be successful. “I make goals for myself and I work toward them with strong determination,” he said. ”That includes planning ahead, knowing where my business is going and keeping accurate records.”

He also credits his family for support. “Having help and support from family enables me to reach my goals.”

His long-term goal? “I want to be a big-time cattle rancher in Duck Valley, to be debt-free and enjoying life to the fullest,” said RC.
