Event Description

Whether you’re the head of a large farming corporation or the successor of a small family farm, the Canadian Farm Business Management Council (CFBMC) has created an event ideal for you. Our 2010 Managing Excellence in Agriculture Conference will focus on the different management styles of large versus small farms. We truly believe the size of your farm is not what measures your success. The management styles you use and staying informed of new agricultural ideas will keep you on the road to success.

By attending this conference, producers will have the chance to listen and learn from experts in the industry, share their knowledge with others, and return to their farming operation with new ideas to better manage their farm. Consultants and Industry Stakeholders will have the opportunity to network with other experts in agriculture, talk with farmers themselves, and gather a variety of new information and ideas regarding farm management.

Please join us for this fantastic event which includes plenary sessions, workshops, and tours of Saskatchewan agricultural businesses.

K-State watershed specialists, livestock experts emphasize importance of water sources

Water is likely the most important nutrient in raising livestock, and yet Kansas State University Extension cow-calf specialist Jason Warner says it is often the most overlooked. “A big reason why many of our pastures and rangelands go underutilized is simply due to a lack of access to high-quality, abundant water resources,” Warner said. Warner said many beef operations in Kansas and similar regions do not have abundant groundwater or access to rural water systems. Instead, they rely heavily on surface water sources to supply their cow-calf herds, stocker cattle and replacement heifers. Springs, ponds and other natural sources such as creeks and streams are a critical part of the ranch’s bottom line and long-term sustainability. “If we think about a ranch or an operating unit that has underdeveloped water resources versus one that has developed and high quality and abundant watering resources, that can certainly add a tremendous amount of value to that operation just in and of itse
