Maybe you’re listening from an area that’s been struggling through a drought spell. Or maybe you’re thankful for the rain, but wishing Mother Nature would spread the storms out just a smidge ... Regardless of where our listeners are located and the weather conditions at home, one thing all producers can agree on is that efficient cows make tough times easier and times of plenty even better.

But how can we as producers select for more efficient females and build a more self-sufficient herd? Research is helping shed some light on feed efficiency and how cattlemen can put pressure on their herd to perform.

On this episode you’ll hear more from Miranda Reiman and our guest David Lalman, a professor and Extension Beef Cattle Specialist at Oklahoma State University, regarding research being conducted to help build a better cow.
