Register to Attend the Cow-Calf Management Tour
July 28, 2023
Beef Farmers of Ontario invite you to join us for farm tours of commercial and purebred cow-calf producers across Durham Region. This event will provide an opportunity to learn from other cow-calf producers, along with a tour of a feedlot to understand the attributes that lead to calves performing well throughout the feeding period. We look forward to discussing rotational grazing plans, pasture management, and cover crop production.
