This is an excellent opportunity for beginning forage and livestock growers and those wanting additional information to get a head start on the latest knowledge available relative to soil fertility, fertilizers, soil testing, soil acidity and liming, cool-season (rye, ryegrass, oats, grazing wheat, clovers, etc.) and warm season (bermudagrass, bahiagrass, sorghum sudan, alfalfa, etc.) forage production, pasture management, hay production, grazing management, cattle body condition scoring, cattle handling (vaccination/dehorning/castration/etc.), working cattle with cow dogs, beef cattle selection, breeding, nutrition, bull selection, production economics, and much more. A new feature this year will be feral hogs- the problem, control methods, etc.
