This week on Cow Calf Corner, published electronically by Paul Beck, Jeff Robe, Oklahoma Quality Beef Network Coordinator, presents meeting times for workshops which will aid producers in spring branding practices.
Spring branding is right around the corner, and now is the time to start planning for calf vaccinations. The Oklahoma Quality Beef Network (OQBN) in conjunction with several Oklahoma State County Extension offices are offering Spring Calf Health Workshops. Some of the topics discussed will include vaccinating for VAC-45 programs, recent research looking at BRD vaccine type and timing of use, vaccine handling, and needle size and selection. Guest speakers from the animal health industry will also be on hand to discuss vaccine products. Programs will also include "Make and Take Vaccine Coolers" and Beef Quality Assurance training. Vaccine coolers are by RSVP only. Please contact your local County Extension Educator for more details about a specific meeting as some content varies.
