January 12: What’s on the horizon for the cattle industry: pricing changes, profit drivers and other possibilities in 2021
• Dr. Scott Brown, University of Missouri
• This presentation will drill into the key issues that will affect producers’ bottom lines in 2021 and will provide focus on cattle markets as COVID-19 recovery begins. This presentation will also tackle the price discovery issues currently facing the industry and possible changes in the year ahead.

January 13: Making Selection Successful: Aligning trait emphasis with market endpoints.
• Dr. Bob Weaber, Kansas State University

January 14: Value of Connected Data
• Justin Sexton, Performance Livestock Analytics
