BeefTalk: The Stress and Strength of the Prairie
Kris Ringwall, Beef Specialist, NDSU Extension Service
Beef production on the prairie takes place within an environment that is not always kind. In fact, the prairie environment might aptly be described as harsh.
Producer expectations do not always hold up, stressing us to the point that our joy of life may be compromised in our misery. In the end, we need to survive the stress to get to our strengths.
