Cow-calf producers often focus primarily on the calf side of the equation while paying less attention to the cull cow side and their overall contribution to income for the operation. Cull cows from the herd, in addition to the calves marketed each year, are important source of revenue and should be managed to return maximum value back to the ranch.
Make plans now to attend this FREE Beef Cattle Workshop on Tuesday, September 26, at J&J Livestock Auction Company (1813 S. Kings Highway, Texarkana) to sharpen your skills at selecting bulls to improve your calf crop and developing strategies to retain cull cow value.
This meeting is being sponsored by the Bowie County Livestock and Forage Committee with the meal being provided by Twin Rivers Nutrition of DeKalb. The speaker for the evening will be Dr. Jason Banta, Extension Beef Cattle Specialist from Overton.
