It won’t be long before spring will arrive and pastures will start to green up. This may be the year for you to consider raising a few head of beef cattle. Traditionally, once Spring springs, cattle prices begin to do the same. As pastures green up, it seems like everyone is looking for calves and feeders to put on grass. A well-known authority on cattle feeding once gave the following recipe for profitable cattle feeding: These hardy beef calves are a hereford-angus cross. They make an excellent beef cow. “Buy the cattle low.

The Prairie Star: Montana Ag Newspaper Use links at bottom of page Cattle-Wise.com offers beef cattle Internet hub plus tracking By ANDREA JOHNSON, For The Prairie Star Friday, July 22, 2005 9:04 AM MDT The cattle industry will soon have access to a "one-stop Internet shop" for e-commerce, managerial and organizational needs. Cattle-Wise, a subsidiary of Path-Wise Corporation, will provide Internet members with cattle tracking, access to cattle and commodity auctions, advertising, directories and information on upcoming events via http://www.cattle-wise.com. Robert G. Mullendore, a lawyer, mathematician, and third-generation Montana cattleman, is acting CEO of Path-Wise Corporation, a software engineering company, based in San Francisco. Path-Wise has 23 employees in San Francisco, Denver, and Missoula, Mont. offices, including a team of 12 engineers and programmers that are building entity tracking for use by many industries. Cattle-Wise is structured as a "systems approach," said Cattle-Wise Manager Frank Padilla, based in southwest Nebraska. "Producers can go to one Internet web service and get everything under one umbrella," said Padilla. "The beef industry is so fragmented - we get production records at one site, animal tracking at another site, auction services at another site. Cattle-Wise is going to bring it all under one roof, which we think is a great benefit for cattle producers."

Agriculture at a Glance, 1996 Beef Cattle by Census Division, 1996 Beef Cattle by Census Division, 1996 View this map Abstract In 1996, Canadian exports of cattle and beef accounted for 2.1 billion, the second single largest agricultural export product after wheat ($4.7 billion). Although 72% of the cow-calf farms are in Western Canada, Eastern Canada is still an important meat producer and represents most of the Canadian beef market. Beef cows outnumber dairy cows in every province except Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador. The slaughter has undergone major structural changes in the nineties. Today the top four slaughter and processing plants account for 70% to 75% of the total slaughter, compared with 53% in 1992. The North American Beef Market: Competition Keeps it Lean by Robert Plourde, Statistics Canada Every time you enjoy some beef from the family barbecue, you affect the Canadian beef industry. The Canadian beef cattle herd has increased over the last decade and the North American and Asian appetite for burgers and steaks is what's behind all that beef. Live cattle and beef are traded every day on North American markets. In 1996, Canadian exports of cattle and beef accounted for $2.1 billion, the second single largest agricultural export product after wheat ($4.7 billion). A surplus of coarse grain in one region, a shortage of ground beef in another, bad pasture conditions in a third, or a shift in demand for beef in Asian countries are some of the day-to-day events that affect producers' decisions and beef production across North America.

Researchers explore hoop barns for feeding beef cattle By Laura Miller, Newsletter editor Components of hoop barns Order MidWest Plan Service publication [PDF] About Hoop Group II The prototype hoop barn at the Armstrong Farm has three pens for cattle. Along the east wall is a feeding bunk that can be filled from outside. Round bales (top photo were used during winter months to stop the wind. Visitors to the Armstrong Research and Demonstration Farm in southwest Iowa are doing double-takes when they see the farm's new hoop barn. The open-ended hoop barn has the familiar half-moon profile, created by a white polyvinyl tarp stretched over curved trusses that are attached to fixed side walls. But the structure is a lot bigger than most hoops 120 ft. long, 50 ft. wide and 26 ft. from peak to dirt-and-gravel floor. A vent for air circulation runs along the top ridge, and one side wall opens to an outside feed bunk covered by an overhang. A look inside explains the differences. This hoop barn houses beef cattle - 120 feeder cattle in deep bedded cornstalks - not hogs, farm equipment or hay, the more typical uses for these structures.

Wheaton Department of Agronomy Corn silage is a popular feed with Missouri cattle feeders. Harvesting corn as silage furnishes 50 to 60 percent more nutrients per acre for beef cattle than harvesting the grain alone, an important consideration for a cattle feeding enterprise that is tied closely to the farm feed supply. Corn silage is often called the "king of roughages" for beef rations that produce 1-1/4 to 2 pounds daily growth gain. Corn silage is a safe feed. It works well for starting cattle on feed. Cattle are easily changed from corn silage to a high-grain finishing ration. Corn silage is often used to furnish minimum roughage levels in high-grain finishing rations.

Home Find Staff Calculators Directories ... Links Trace Minerals for Beef Cows Trace elements of most concern in Alberta Trace element deficiencies - a broad perspective Trace mineral supplementation Mineral supplements ... Special conditions Most of the forage grown in Alberta is deficient in several trace minerals. These minerals are so named because they are required in minute or trace amounts. Table I shows the average trace mineral content in some common Alberta grown feedstuffs. The majority of the forages we grow do not contain enough copper, zinc, selenium or manganese to meet the requirements of beef cattle. Trace Elements of Most Concern in Alberta Essential trace elements are necessary for the well being of the animal. These are needed in sufficient quantities to promote health and to optimize production and reproduction. All trace elements are toxic when fed in excessive quantities. Table 2 is a summary of suggested minimum target levels for dietary trace minerals. The levels are approximations, as requirements are affected by many factors. Copper More than 90 percent of the feed produced in Alberta is low in copper. Cases of copper deficiency are common. Symptoms of deficiency include anaemia, impaired reproduction in cows, bleaching of the hair coat, scours, unthriftiness, stunted growth and sudden death. A greater incidence of internal and external parasites has been noted in copper deficient animals. There is also an increased tendency for bones to fracture in calves and an increased incidence of lameness. The suggested minimum requirement for copper in cattle rations is 10 mg/kg.

Infertility and abortions in cattle are two of the greatest problems the cattle breeder faces. The causes are complex and difficult to identify. This publication discusses and briefly outlines some of the more common diseases and control measures. In case of abortion, call your veterinarian immediately and have the following information or material available. Identify aborting cows and isolate them from the rest of the herd. This helps prevent spread of infection and makes them available for examination. Maintain a history of herd vaccinations, movement of cattle to and from other premises, and management and origin of bulls. Keep a reproductive history records of cows, including number of abortions, conception rate, and approximate breeding dates.

Methane, from sheep and cattle mostly, accounts for 14 per cent of Australia's greenhouse gas total. But unlike the energy sector or even transport, agriculture has been slow to recognise its pollution and adopt solutions. [
