Calling all agricultural enthusiasts! The Grayson Blankenship Farm in Columbia, Kentucky, is hosting a free farm field day on Thursday, July 25th, 2024, from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm.
This informative event is a great opportunity for farmers and anyone interested in cattle feeding to learn about the latest practices and technologies used to raise healthy livestock.
The field day will include a farm tour, led by host Grayson Blankenship. Attendees will get a firsthand look at the farm's operations and have the chance to ask questions about cattle feeding strategies employed there. A key highlight will be a presentation on the use of The Cow Manager System, a tool that records calf activity to monitor their health.
Understanding cattle activity patterns can be an asset for cattle producers. By using a system like The Cow Manager System, farmers can gain insights into the well-being of their animals and identify potential health issues early on. Early detection often leads to faster treatment and better overall herd health.
Grayson Blankenship, along with Nick Roy from the University of Kentucky, will likely be on hand to answer questions and share their expertise throughout the evening.
This farm field day is a great opportunity to learn about cattle feeding practices, network with other agricultural professionals, and gain valuable insights from experienced farmers. The event is free and open to the public, so don't miss out!
