Nutrition is critically important for cow/calf operations. NDSU Extension Livestock Stewardship Specialist Gerald Stokka says nutrition was a big topic. “Cold weather and heat makes a difference in nutrition and keeping track of body scores can help determine how effective your feeding plan is.” With early calving started for some producers, more commercial livestock producers will start the bulk of their calving season in the next two weeks. Stocka warns about the importance of getting colostrum into newborn calves. Stokka was part of a workshop this past week in Edgeley, North Dakota.
