Cow-Calf Management Tour - 8th & 9th September 2023

Beef Farmes of Ontario invite you to join us for farm tours of commercial and purebred cow-calf producers across Durham Region. This event will provide an opportunity to learn from other cow-calf producers, along with a tour of a feedlot to understand the attributes that lead to calves performing well throughout the feeding period. We look forward to discussing rotational grazing plans, pasture management, and cover crop production.
