Upcoming Cattlemen’s College offered in conjunction with CattleCon 2025, set for Feb. 4-6, in San Antonio, Texas.

Program provides on-farm cattle working workshops and demonstrations to educate and train underserved ranchers.

Event targets producers, feeders and other stakeholders who want a better understanding of factors that contribute to the market value of cattle and how these factors can inform marketing and production decisions.

Grazing Management Plan Development Module is free to all cattle producers and can also serve as a tool for those working directly with producers on their grazing management.

Attendees may participate in person, with limited seating available, or virtually.

During each event, producers can become BQA certified, network with fellow cattlemen and women, participate in hands-on demonstrations led by animal handling experts and learn cutting-edge operation techniques.

MU Extension agriculture business specialist says these new tools help producers understand their profit margins when they price beef for local markets.

Upcoming sessions provide an opportunity for interested stakeholders to attend either in-person or virtually.

Producers can reduce risk by keeping cattle away from wooded areas and other habitats where ticks live, and clearing weeds and brush regularly.

Poor cows eat up more than hay. They eat up profit margins.
