Drought conditions make mother cow nutrition critical

Tim Hearden Extension scientists say drought conditions make mother cow nutrition levels critical. Research at three Intermountain universities analyzing numerous range cattle herds over 10-12 years shows two crucial periods exist in the nutritional plane. Scott Cotton, Chance Marshall | Jan 27, 2021 A livestock herd’s profitability depends on the ability of a mother animal, cows in this case, to breed up, carry a calf to term, successfully provide for the calf, and breed back up again the next year. Long-term research at Oklahoma State University and Texas A&M AgriLife over 15 years declared that, for your investment in a cow, most will successfully deliver 5.7 to 6 calves in their lifetime. We hope ours is a bit better than that in Wyoming, but drought conditions do not help at all.
