Registration will begin at 8:30 that morning with a full day of presentations running from 9:00 a.m. and ending at approximately 3:00 that afternoon. 

The day is divided into a cluster of five primary topics: 1) air quality, 2) composting manure and mortalities, 3) beta-agonists/by-product feeds, 4) animal handling, and 5) carcass quality.  For each of the topics, you will rotate around the feedlot to stop at various places to not only hear from experts on the topic, but get a chance to see and touch what is really going on.

Anyone interested in beef production is invited to attend, with the presentations geared toward feedlot owners, managers, and employees who are making decisions at their feedlot and/or implementing various practices day in and day out. A lunch will be served at noon.
