Beef cattle producers will have an opportunity to learn about bull buying at workshops the North Dakota State University Extension Service is hosting this winter.

 

Participants will learn how expected progeny differences can help them select the right bull for their herd.

 

Kris Ringwall, NDSU Extension beef cattle specialist and director of NDSU’s Dickinson Research Extension Center, is the presenter for the “Buying Bulls by the Numbers” workshops. He will focus on implementing expected progeny differences in bull selection.

 

Our main goal is to provide producers a hands-on experience on how they can utilize these tools as they look at bull selection and pending purchases,” Ringwall says.

 

Locally, a workshop will be held Jan. 17 at Wishek Livestock.
