 Ranching
Perspectives
Prairie
Public Broadcasting, Fargo, North Dakota, 2003, DVD, funding provided
by a grant from the United States Department of Agriculture Rural
Development
 Ranching
requires a mixture of financial sense, marketing savvy, sheer physical
strength, and a touch of animal psychology. Ranching Perspectives
spends time with ten North Dakota families who understand this way
of life -- the life of the original rural business. But the complex
issues ranchers face today are different than those their parents
encountered. Ranchers manage the complex opportunities and challenges
of running a business with the added burden of the daily care and
feeding of hundreds of large animals. They are grounded in traditions,
yet must constantly modify their operations to meet the needs of a
modern world. Get an eye-full of some of the most beautiful countryside
in North Dakota while experiencing the ranching industry from a different
perspective.
The program features the Wolff family on their ranch near Golden
Valley, ND. The Wolff family has ancestral roots to the village
of Glückstal, South Russia, today in Moldova near Odessa, Ukraine.
Families members include Cora Wolff Tschaefoske, Dickinson, ND and
her late sister, Viola Wolff Bertsch. Cora and Viola visited their
homeland village of Glückstal in May, 1997. Photographs can
be seen at www.lib.ndsu.nodak.edu/grhc/outreach/documentaries/video3.html.
