Herd Health and Forage Improvement for Animal Production

Wednesday, May 20, 2026 • 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

150 Slayton Avenue Danville, VA, 24540


May is a great time for animal producers to learn about increasing weight gains, increase efficiency in grazing, and . how to manage a herd for higher quality and health. We will learn how some forages increase stress ,especially during hot seasons, and cause lower birth weights. The animal producers will learn how to manage stresses which means a better product for consumption and increased profits
