K-State’s Winter Ranch Management Series set for Feb. 11 in Mankato

There is still time to register for the K-State Research and Extension’s 2020 Winter Ranch Management Seminar Series, hosted by a collaboration of Central Kansas, Post Rock and River Valley districts. The event is scheduled for Feb. 11 in Mankato at the Community Center, starting at 5:30 p.m. with registration and then dinner at 6 p.m.

The meetings will feature presentations and comments by Extension educators to enhance management and marketing strategies employed by cow-calf producers. The meetings will also feature a popular “town hall” style question-and-answer session between Kansas cattle producers and Extension specialists.

“The Series has a history of being a successful stretch of meetings, which are hosted throughout the state of Kansas,” says Bob Weaber, K-State Extension Cow-Calf Specialist. Weaber, along with other state, district and local Extension staff, will take part in the Series to help answer producers’ questions. The specialists will answer a wide range of questions on beef cattle issues including animal health, nutrition, management, genetics, and reproduction.

Our Extension team has a breadth of experience in beef cattle management, reproduction, genetics, animal health, and nutrition. We’re here to help solve and prevent production problems with reliable information.”
