RANCHERS UNDER PRESSURE: HOW REGULATIONS ARE RESHAPING AMERICAN LAND USE On Trent on the Loos, Trent sits down with New Mexico ranchers Justin “Spike” and Kelly Goss for a powerful, no-nonsense conversation about the growing impact of environmental regulations on American ranching. The Goss family shares firsthand how government rules are tightening control over land use, limiting production, and threatening the future of family-run operations. From grazing restrictions to compliance costs, they break down how these policies are shrinking opportunities for ranchers and disrupting the nation’s food supply chain. Trent and his guests make a strong case that overregulation is not just a rural issue—it’s a national concern that affects every American who depends on safe, reliable food production. This episode delivers a hard-hitting look at the battle between federal oversight and the survival of independent agriculture.
