Join James and Chad for this discussion on common fly populations impacting grazing cattle.  They review the basic life cycle of flies, the impact various flies can have on cattle performance, and options for controlling flies.  The conversation includes information on how many flies are too many - at what point should producers take action to control flies.  Additional resources can be found at the links below:
