Review of Yates Family Farms by TexasRealFood

The goal of Yates Family Farms, which is located in Longview, Texas, is to produce locally-raised, high-quality beef at an affordable price. They want premium beef affordable for the consumers here in the East Texas area. They operate using the farm-to-table approach; what you have in your kitchen and dining table is fresh from the farm. They have provided a price list for individual orders. There is also a separate price list for bulk orders. This means small, local businesses sourcing beef locally can still turn a profit if the beef they buy in bulk is affordable. This is also a great offer for families planning on cooking for a big group when there is a special occasion, like weddings, birthdays, or anniversary celebrations when guests come to visit, dine, and celebrate.

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

Conventional Conventional

Conventional

Conventional farming, also known as industrial agriculture, refers to farming systems which include the use of fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, as well as other inputs like genetically-modified crops, factory farming, heavy irrigation, intensive tillage and/or concentrated monoculture production. Conventional farming is usually contrasted to organic farming as the latter prohibits the use of chemical inputs and amendments.

Cover Cropping

A cover crop is a crop of a specific plant that is grown primarily for the benefit of the soil rather than the crop yield. Cover crops are commonly used to suppress weeds, manage soil erosion, help build and improve soil fertility and quality, control diseases and pests, and promote biodiversity. Cover crops are typically grasses or legumes but may include other green plants. A cover crop can help ready the land for a cash crop in the case of monoculture, conventional, and industrial sized organic farming, or it can be used as part of a wider planting scheme in combination with crop rotation and polyculture systems.

Grass Fed / Pastured Grass Fed / Pastured

Grass Fed / Pastured

The term “grass fed” (as opposed to grain fed) refers to meat obtained from cows that were raised on a diet of grass and other forage, such as clover; situated in pasture and, when fresh grass is unavailable, hay. This helps to denote the difference between livestock that has been raised in feedlots and generally fed a diet of soy and corn, versus animals that have had access to their natural feeding environment in pasture, which contains grasses, wildflowers, and herbs. This term overlaps with “pasture-raised” and will usually be seen together. Grass-fed beef is also believed to taste better, and be better for the environment, too. There are several organizations that offer a certification for Grass Fed, such as the American Grassfed Association, Certified Grassfed by A Greener World, and Pasture for Life, to name a few.
