Breeding the Florida Herd for Quality
The 71st Annual Beef Cattle Short Course will return to the traditional, full-blown and in-person event this year, May 4 – 6th. We will resume the pre-pandemic format, starting Wednesday after lunch (1:00 PM) and adjourning Friday at noon.
The Short Course this year will have a double focus: female reproduction and traceability. The program includes lectures with influential external speakers and the outstanding UF faculty, short presentation of research updates, hands-on activities and social gatherings with delicious food.
The agenda is pictured below. Hope to see you in person after three years. Click here to register now: https://tinyurl.com/71BCSC.
