The July 12, issue # 495, of the Ohio BEEF Cattle letter is now posted to the web at: http://fairfield.osu.edu/ag/beef/beefJly12.html
Selling more weight per calf, and/or selling the calf for more per pound are often times the first two thoughts that come to mind as we think about adding “value” to the cow herd enterprise. This week, we take a look at what may be a couple of less obvious management opportunities that will add to the bottom line.
Articles this week include:
* Late-calving Cows Can Be Costly
* Farmer Frank and the Tale of the Bull Calf Dilemma
* Forage Focus: What is that plant with the yellow flower in my pasture fields?
* Potato Leafhopper
* Weekly Roberts Agricultural Commodity Market Report
