Driving across South Dakota was beautiful as the grass was really coming on. Rapid City got pelted in snow last weekend. Hard to believe it’s May!!
Yes surprises still happen with weather and I am always amazed how we think we can predict future changes when we can’t even get it right three days from now! We weren’t able to predict population growth and now we are trying to predict weather?
In the cattle industry we are busy. Let’s focus on what we can actually control and manage. Yesterday I heard a talk on implanting cattle and it is still the biggest bang for our buck and is technology that allows us to produce more beef for less $$. We talked about reproductive efficiency and costs associated with open cows. BVD control and finding PIs was also discussed. The veterinarians present Had the usual questions and most were not really interested in making changes to what that have been doing….Interesting
Have a great day and remember…It doesn’t get any better than this!
