Range Beef Cow Symposium
The Colorado State University Department of Animal Sciences is proud to host the 28th Range Beef Cow Symposium, Dec. 13-14, 2023, at The Ranch in Loveland, Colo. A pre-symposium Beef Quality Assurance training will be provided on Tuesday, Dec. 12.
The biennial symposium, sponsored by the Cooperative Extension Service and animal science departments of Colorado State University, South Dakota State University, University of Nebraska and University of Wyoming, offers an exclusive program of practical production management information specific to the region’s cattle producers.
An always-popular feature of the Range Beef Cow Symposium is the evening “Bull Pen Sessions.” Speakers will be present for questions and discussion about their topics, offering attendees an opportunity to acquire more in-depth and applied knowledge from presentations earlier in the program.
