Nebraska Extension to host webinar on low pregnancy rates in young cows March 10
Jessica Kennedy
LINCOLN — Low pregnancy rates in young cows can significantly impact herd replacement costs and long-term profitability for cow-calf producers.
To address this challenge, Nebraska Extension will host a webinar, Considerations of Causes of Low Pregnancy Rates in Young Cows, on Tuesday, March 10 at 7:30 p.m.
The focus will be on key biological and management factors that influence reproductive success in young cows.
Topics and presenters include:
Heifer Development – Dr. Rick Funston and Dr. Kacie McCarthy
Genetic Selection – Dr. Matt Spangler
Nutrition for the Cow – Dr. Karla Wilke
Infectious Diseases and Infertility – Dr. Brian Vander Ley and Dr. Matt Hille
The first 40 minutes of the program will feature short presentations from each speaker, followed by a live questions-and answer session.
Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with Nebraska Extension specialists, veterinarians and educators.
The webinar is open to cow-calf producers, veterinarians and consultants.
The goal of the program is to encourage discussion around low pregnancy rates in young cows and to provide research-based insights that can be applied in herd management decisions.
There is no cost to attend, but advance registration is requested.
To register, email Aaron Berger at aberger2@unl.edu by Friday, March 6.
A recording of the webinar will be made available to registered participants following the program.
