Feed costs are often the largest category of expense for cow-calf producers in Nebraska. Nebraska Extension will be hosting a four session webinar series on Monday and Thursday evenings, January 15, 18, 22 and 25, from 7:30 - 8:45 p.m. CT that will explain the fundamentals of understanding a cow’s nutrition requirements and the options available to meet a cow’s needs with grazed or harvested feed.

Topics to be covered will include:
• What impacts a cow’s nutrient requirements and how do they change throughout the year?
• How do you read and understand a feed test analysis as well as a feed tag? What do the numbers mean?
• When comparing feed options, which is the best buy when all things are considered?
• What are things to consider when developing a year around feeding plan?
The cost of the four-session program is $50 and includes a resource notebook that will be mailed to participants. Please register by January 8th to ensure that you receive your resource notebook by the first session on January 15!
