BAD AXE, Mich. — Marketing fed beef direct to packer/processors or through many Michigan auction markets for full value will soon require Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) certification. Feedyard certification is also highly recommended for cow/calf producers to prepare for future marketing of cull cows and bulls. These in-person certification trainings will be conducted by the MSU Beef Team.
There is no cost to attend, but pre-registration is requested.
(Meetings will require a minimum number of RSVPs)
