Janna Block and Adele Harty
Ranchers will have an opportunity to learn more about mineral nutrition for beef cattle through an educational series hosted by North Dakota State University, South Dakota State University (SDSU), Montana State University and the University of Wyoming.
Extension beef cattle specialists from the four universities are accepting registrations for the series, titled “Mineral Nutrition for the Beef Cow Herd.”
Started in South Dakota in 2017, the program was extended to North Dakota in 2018 and to Montana and Wyoming this year.
The program, which was spurred by increased interest in grazing mineral nutrition, consists of educational webinars in June and submission of forage and water samples to a laboratory with follow-up with Extension personnel, ranch visits by Extension personnel and more educational webinars in the fall.
Port: Cops have better things to do than enforce the inane strictures of the smoking Stasi
What, exactly, are we accomplishing by prohibiting smoking and vaping in establishments that cater, exclusively, to a clientele who smoke and vape? Next to nothing, as a practical matter, yet publicly-funded researchers are studying it anyway. 10:56 am, May 19, 2021 ×
MINOT, N.D. Brace yourselves, dear readers, for a stunning revelation comes our way. Only two of 35 vape shops in North Dakota fully complied with the state s smoke-free law, according to the findings of a study recently published by North Dakota State University, Michelle Griffith reports.
Registration is open for a multi-part course geared toward mineral nutrition for the beef cow herd through a partnership with the University of Wyoming, South Dakota State University (SDSU), North Dakota State University and Montana State University.
The program expanded from its start at SDSU in 2017 due to an increased interest in grazing mineral nutrition.
“This program is unique in that it will provide producers an educational workshop where participants will not only learn the importance of mineral supplementation in beef cattle, but they will also receive individual ranch visits that will allow for evaluation of their current mineral program, testing of feed and water samples and ultimately development of an effective mineral program for their individual operation,” said Shelby Rosasco, UW Extension beef specialist.
True North Equipment was born
John was a Sun Prairie High grad and then went on to gain an ag technology degree at UW-Platteville. He then worked in several marketing positions at John Deere for some 18 years, including at Grand Forks. While working with Grafton Equipment, the local John Deere dealership some 40 miles away merged with several smaller dealerships into Grafton Equipment, and he was offered the opportunity to become a partner in the firm with the retirement of an existing partner. He accepted the offer and joined majority owner Dan Gorder as a partner.
In the intervening years, Grafton Equipment has become True North Equipment and moved its headquarters to Grand Forks, where it has grown in size from four to eight locations and over 200 employees. A year or so ago, John became CEO with co-CEO Gorder assuming the chairman position.
