Colorado State University Professor and animal behaviorist Temple Grandin will headline the inaugural Herd That! Conference, on the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s East Campus.

The conference, sponsored by the Nebraska Women in Agriculture and Nebraska Beef Quality Assurance programs, will focus on the five areas of risk management specific to livestock. A highlight of the event will be a live cattle-handling demonstration with Grandin and Dean Fish, ranch manager at Santa Fe Ranch in Nogales, Arizona.
