Welcome to this week's newsletter
This week's Book Focus

We have 4 new features this week:
The Big Question Over Beef Hormones
The question over whether beef cattle should be treated with artificial hormones can be perceived on many different levels - be they physiological, political, economical, ethical, or environmental - each answer they evoke blinds one belief to another. Perhaps this explains why it is at the heart of the single longest dispute that the World Trade Organization has ever had to deal with, writes Adam Anson, reporting for TheBeefSite.
Testing Forages for Quality
Testing Forages for Quality Can Save Dollars and Makes Cents When Designing Feeding Programs for the Herd, writes Dr. Rick Rasby, Professor of Animal Science Animal Science, University of Nebraska - Lincoln and published by Ohio State University Extension Beef Team.
What is the Economic Impact of Infertility in Beef Cattle?
Beef producers need cows to become pregnant, deliver healthy calves, and wean productive calves to make their operations viable, reports G. Cliff Lamb, Carl Dahlen, and Mary Maddox in a University of Florida IFAS Extension publication.
Grain Fed and Grass Fed Beef Production
Grain fed and grass fed beef is a complementary combination to fulfil customer needs and demands, writes TheCattleSite Senior Editor, Chris Harris.
