Posted: Updated:

North Dakota farmers and ranchers show off what makes their business work...

Good evening, I'm Amber Schatz, thanks for joining us tonight.

Ranchers from overseas get a first-hand look at North Dakota-grown products.

The North Dakota Trade Office is hosting a group of 15 cattlemen from Kazakhstan.

North Dakota ranchers give hands-on training to assist Kazakh cattle owners in properly handling cattle from the Midwest.

Larry White with the NDTO is leading the tour, showing international farmers and ranchers the newest technology used here in the state.

Larry White with the ND Trade Office "My job is to help find export markets for 60 some companies in North Dakota. So it's very important for me to show them what we have here and how it works on the farms so we can sell it overseas to the people that are going to use it."
