Registration is open for a multi-part course geared toward mineral nutrition for the beef cow herd through a partnership with the University of Wyoming, South Dakota State University (SDSU), North Dakota State University and Montana State University.
The program expanded from its start at SDSU in 2017 due to an increased interest in grazing mineral nutrition.
“This program is unique in that it will provide producers an educational workshop where participants will not only learn the importance of mineral supplementation in beef cattle, but they will also receive individual ranch visits that will allow for evaluation of their current mineral program, testing of feed and water samples and ultimately development of an effective mineral program for their individual operation,” said Shelby Rosasco, UW Extension beef specialist.
