Gudmundsen Sandhills Laboratory 25th Annual Open House, Wednesday, Aug 21. The open house will begin at 8 a.m. MDT and offer some hybrid sessions throughout the day for those unable to attend in person. A complimentary lunch will be provided to those in attendance. The event will give the latest cattle market updates, interactive sessions, panel discussions, research updates, and more. Researchers and experts will cover various points including range management, heat stress, fly control, and yearling systems among other topics. The GSL Open House celebrates many years of dedicated research at the ranch that has strengthened and innovated the practices used by ranchers today. To recognize this anniversary, a panel will reflect on how GSL got to where it is today and honor alumni of the ranch. GSL lies in Grant, Hooker, and Cherry counties. The former Rafter C Ranch was leased by the University of Nebraska–Lincoln from the University of Nebraska Foundation in 1981 to serve as a hub for research in the Sandhills. The day is free to attend and includes lunch. Please RSVP for the open house at https://extension.unl.edu/statewide/westcentral/2024-gsl-open-house-0/
