Simplot Summer 2018

n Hibbs I’m enjoying my time fishing, hunting, camping, gardening, and relaxing with my wife and three daughters. I feel that I have a deep understanding of dairy producers and the operations they manage. I approach every day with the goal of helping dairymen fix those problem areas. Most salesmen only take orders, and that bugs me. My style is to dig a little deeper and help animals stay healthy. I work for the cows and their producers. Period. I love connecting with producers and solving their problems. I currently have a customer who sends their calves to a grower. When the grower was losing too many of the calves, I stepped in, worked with the crew, and made several changes. Colostrum quality and administration and sanitization of the hutches and bedding improved significantly, and product was added to treat and prevent scours. Now, the calves are much healthier and are doing well. It was a huge win for the customer. When you work with Simplot Western Stockmen’s, you can expect our service to be the No. 1 priority.
