What We’re Streaming | The Getting Through Drought podcast series

By the Rural Routes to Climate Solutions Podcast

We’ve been working on the Getting Through Drought podcast series—a series specifically for cow-calf producers in Alberta—for the better part of a year now.

The series covers topics such as grazing, how to make a drought plan, water management, and feed alternatives. We are hoping with this series that by sharing information on the BMPs that tend to be effective in getting cow-calf operations in Alberta through a drought, the province’s cow-calf sector can be better prepared for the next drought. Even though the series is geared toward cow-calf producers, there’s useful info in there for any agricultural producer.

All twelve episodes in the Getting Through Drought series will be released by the end of May.

Listen to the episodes

‘What We’re Streaming‘ is a quick look at some of the issues and insights Alberta Beef Producers’ content creators and editors are streaming to stay up-to-date, to broaden perspectives, and to explore issues relevant to the agriculture industry.
