The value of ‘hands-on’ BCS for a commercial beef herd
The literal act of completing ‘hands-on’ body condition scoring (BCS) is often thought of by commercial beef producers as a procedure done strictly in academic trials, research studies, or by seedstock operations.

After facing a third year of drought across much of Alberta, producers are getting creative in the search for alternative feed options.

From the government desk
We all hoped that 2023 would turn over a new leaf for drought in Alberta, but it has proved another difficult one. Most of the province was severely impacted by the record heat in May, and while many farms and ranches received rains in June, it was not timely enough to save hay crops. The…
