My name is Randy Kai, my wife Deb and I live on an acreage in Southeast Nebraska (DeWitt, NE). We have been in the horse, cattle and herding dog arenas over many years. Since February of 2021, it has been our passion and mission to raise high quality Full Blood Dorper sheep - Saddle Creek Dorpers. I would like to 1st thank Charlie Taylor for his nomination of myself to the ADSBS Board.I have been in Agriculture my entire life and am currently in my 36th year as an agribusiness professional. My Bachelor’s degree in Business and Marketing would be a major benefit to ADSBS along with my history in agribusiness. The experience that I bring from marketing, leadership, promotion, advertising and program development would be a tremendous asset to ADSBS. As board member of ADSBS, I would like help to continue grow our breed in the most dorper standard way possible. I believe our success as a Society and Breed is to become even more far-reaching with our commercial dorper breeders around the country, providing economic driven services for these members. Focusing on dorper quality, from the sale or show ring to the dinner table.A dynamic focus on marketing of our brand/product is the future of the dorper breed becoming the premier and preferred breed in the next 20 years, through research in production of high-quality animals and completing the step from quality of lambs in the market to quality of meat on your plate.
