Iowa State University’s Department of Agricultural Economics and Iowa Beef Center have teamed up with Kansas State University’s Department of Agricultural Economics to present “Iowa Cattle Risk Management Workshops.” Also sponsored by the Iowa Cattle-men’s Association, Iowa Farm Bureau and the U.S. Department of Agricul-ture’s Risk Management Agency, workshops are scheduled across Iowa for cattle producers, agricultural lenders and other cattle industry stakeholders.

The “cow herd” workshop focuses on management and marketing decisions pertaining to calves and stockers. The “feedlot” workshop will allow participants to make management and marketing decisions pertaining to stockers and finished steers. 

All workshops begin at 10 a.m. In the Quad-City area, a workshop is set for Jan. 30 at Jackson County Courthouse in Maquoketa.

Registration fees are $25 and are payable at the door.

To register or for more information, contact the Iowa Beef Center at (515) 294-BEEF or visit  iowabeefcenter.org.
