Researchers looking to estimate cost of calving assistance in Canada

*Update: A $50.00 gift card will be given to the first 10 participants.*

Researchers from the University of Calgary Faculty of Veterinary Medicine are recruiting cow-calf producers to develop an estimate on the cost of an assisted calving for producers.

Data collected will be kept confidential, and participating producers will be given a summary of herd level production indicators, with a benchmark of all the herds involved.

For more information, read over the following letter, and contact Dr. Jennifer M. Pearson and Cecilia Lucio.
