2014 UW Extension Cattle Feeder Workshops Proceedings Now Available

The annual Cattle Feeders Workshops were held last week at seven locations around the state.  Topics included Remodeling Retired Dairy Facilities for Raising Steers, Factors that Impact Profitability in Feeder Cattle in the Feedlot and Evaluating Bedding Costs and Returns in the Feedlot.

We had the opportunity to visit with over 300 beef producers around the state at the workshops.

The handouts from the workshop are now available on the WBIC Conferences and Workshop Proceedings page and the WBIC Feedlot page.
