Larson Ranch, owned and operated by Brady and Kyla Larson, will host the August 21 KLA/Kansas State University Ranch Management Field Day near Leoti. Educational sessions will cover the future of yield grading and bovine congestive heart failure.
With the current Yield Grade equation no longer representative of the true red meat yield of today’s cattle, beef industry stakeholders are seeking a more accurate replacement. Texas Tech University meat scientist Dale Woerner will discuss new research currently demonstrating considerable promise for accurate measurement and/or prediction of red meat yield on an individual animal basis.
