LINCOLN β€” During the winter of 2017 Nebraska Extension will host 16 Beef Profitability Workshops to help beef producers evaluate their operations to make them more profitable through the latest research information. The combination of low commodity prices and high input costs has left cattle producers struggling to reach breakeven levels.

EXAMPLES OF TOPICS THAT MAY BE PRESENTED AT SPECIFIC LOCATIONS ARE:
Harvesting Crop Residues- Does It Affect future crop yields
Balancing the ranch or farm for Protein
Mineral Nutrition
Composting Livestock Mortality Carcasses
Windrow Grazing
Forage Testing and What the Numbers Mean
EPDs and Bull Selection
Economics in the Beef Industry and Beef Outlook
Fencing and Watering Options on Crop Residue
Managing Risk on the Average Sized Cow-Calf Operation
Evaluating and Valuing Cull Beef Cows and their Carcasses
Cow Depreciation – ( 2nd largest cost)
Hay and Land Grazing Rental Rates
Global Market Landscape
Livestock Outlook
Grass Production
Cover Crop Production

A team of UNL Extension Educators, including Steve Pritchard, Larry Howard, Dennis Bauer, Gary Stauffer, Jim Jansen, Michael Rethwisch and Steve Niemeyer along with local Extension Educators will present information as well as practical approaches for the beef producer.

These workshops have been held across Nebraska for the past thirteen years.

Workshops are sponsored by Nebraska Extension. The cost is $15.00 but may vary from location depending on local sponsorship. Pre-Register by calling the local Extension Office in the host county at least three days before the workshop to ensure there are enough handouts and refreshments.

For more information or assistance, please call Steve Niemeyer, UNL Extension Educator in Garfield, Loup and Wheeler Counties at 308-346- 4200 or sniemeyer1@unl.edu
