One of the sessions from the recent Cow-Calfenomics risk management series is now available on Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development’s web page.

The theme of this year’s series was Seizing Opportunity in the Alberta Cow-Calf Sector. The agenda included:

• Meat and cattle fundamentals for herd planning: opportunities and threats to expanding the cow herd;
• Linking pasture systems to optimize beef performance and profit;
• Beef cow investment;
• Managing prosperity in the beef industry;
• A helpful hand: human resource strategies for the ranch;
• Transition tactics;
• A producer’s perspective.
