Webinar on search for the optimum cow is scheduled for October 23
 
Please join the Midwest Beef Cattle Consultants team on Oct. 23 at 7 p.m. EDT for a webinar, “Building A Forage-Efficient Cow: The Continued Search For The Elusive Optimum Cow. The speaker, Dr. David Lalman, is one of the most well-respected beef cattle animal scientists in North America.
Lalman was one of MBCC team member Chris Muegge’s professors at Oklahoma State University, and his work as the supervisor for the Range Cow Research Center is focused on the interaction of beef cow nutrition, management and reproduction. He has recently completed a comprehensive study on the impact of cow size on calf production, fertility, efficiency and maintenance cost. 
Want to know more about the impact of cow size on weaning weight, grazing acres, winter feed cost and cow pregnancy rate? Please contact Muegge (317-460-6618 or cmuegge@myninestar.net) or W. Mark Hilton (765-714-1092 or wmarkhilton@gmail.com) to reserve a spot and receive a link to join this free virtual seminar.
