FORT ATKINSON, Wis. — Our next monthly webinar will take place on Monday, November 8 at noon (Central time). Mike Rankin, Hay & Forage Grower magazine, and Mike Hutjens, University of Illinois, will present “A feed and forage outlook for the year ahead.”
This webinar will offer insights into the 2021 forage and feed production year and implications for 2022. Large regions of drought and excess moisture during the growing season had a large influence on forage quantity and hay prices. Forage quality from U.S. testing labs will be summarized. Exports of corn, soybeans, and alfalfa will continue to affect ration costs. The use of by-product feeds provide flexibility, but there will be regional differences.
The webinar is sponsored by Chr. Hansen. To register, visit www.hoards.com/webinars.
