Beef Cattle Reproduction Symposium Scheduled (07/14/2010)
Nashville, Tennessee - Cow-calf producers find themselves challenged by rising input costs. Given the magnitude of increased expenses, producers are intently focused on the bottom line while seeking both economic and production efficiencies. In response the University of Tennessee and the Beef Reproduction Task Force is sponsoring the 2010 Applied Reproductive Strategies in Beef Cattle from August 5 and 6 in Nashville, Tennessee.
This symposium will inform producers on cutting edge reproductive strategies. The speakers will provide the knowledge needed to improve herd productivity and decrease input costs by shortening the calving and breeding season. The symposium will also help producers understand how to improve overall reproductive management through enhancement of both male and female reproduction, as well as innovations in protocols such as estrous synchronization.
The presenters represent leading educational and research institutions and will share their knowledge on the latest topics of cattle reproduction.
