The Roundup Web reports:
Arriving in Turkey this March will be 2,400 heifer calves from the Montana/North Dakota border area, coordinated by Howard Rambur of Rambur Charolais in Sidney, Montana. “The shipment of cattle started this summer when an exporter was driving the countryside in Virginia and saw a bunch of buckskin cows from one of our customers,”
The exporter works in the private sector and has taken numerous shipments of live U.S. cattle overseas. Traditionally, Holstein cattle are the ones shipped the most but this time it was different.
The exporter, Turkish businessmen and others involved with the cattle deal traveled to Montana three times to visit Rambur, see the cattle and discuss the arrangements. They definitely got the taste of Eastern Montana/Western North Dakota winter weather.
This was Rambur's first time coordinating an international shipment. He had been on trade missions to other countries before with the Department of Agriculture, but this one was done privately with the exporter with all the Logistics being done with each party.
