Say hello to Mabel 👋 She’s a full-size simulator (you’ve probably seen her in action at other Extension/ANPC events?), and her calf Marvin is waiting in the wings for his grand entrance.

Learn more about the event. Registration is open until June 2. https://www.ndsu.edu/agriculture/extension/events/junior-beef-producers-workshop-0

Dusty conditions can also pose cattle health challenges that producers should be aware of, according to Dr. Jake Galbreath, North Dakota State University Extension veterinarian. https://www.ag.ndsu.edu/news/newsreleases/2026/may/dry-dusty-conditions-can-increase-pneumonia-risk-in-cattle-warns-ndsu-extension-vet
