With: Aaron Berger, Beef Systems Educator; Randy Saner, Beef Systems Educator; and Matt Stockton, Professor and Agricultural Economist (all with Nebraska Extension)

Early weaning calves is a tool that can reduce forage demand on pastures, improve cow body condition and cow breed up when drought conditions reduce forage production. This webinar will offer tips on planning and preparing for the process, and highlight how having quality feed resources and good management practices in place will help to ensure success.
