Today, we’re dropping on DTN’s recent Beef Industry Exchange, a beef webinar series hosted by Senior Livestock Editor Jennifer Carrico.
This month’s webinar, which took place on June 24th, included a summer weather update from DTN Ag Meteorologist John Baranick, a cattle markets update by DTN’s analyst ShayLe Stewart, and an deep dive with Aaron Berger, the Beef Systems Education Extension agent at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
We’ll drop in on Aaron’s talk to hear more about cow-calf economics in today’s drought and wildfire-stricken west, and learn what strategies he’s using with as cow-calf producers as they start to think about a future where they rebuild their herd, without missing out on today’s opportunities.
