Well, Fall is upon us. It was a busy summer. The farm picnics were great successes.
A big Thank You to Roger and Cindy Weideman for hosting one of the picnics, and
to the Gruenerts and Larsons for hosting both the Advanced Cow Training for the
Youth and the farm picnic. Thank you also to all of the folks that supported
Wisconsin Farm Technology Days and the Wisconsin and Minnesota state fairs.
The Highlands are always a big hit with the people who attend these events. World
Beef Expo is now behind us, and the NCHCA was well represented at that show.
As I write this, we're gearing up for the annual NCHCA show in Austin, MN. As the
year winds down, I hope that Fall finds you, your families, and your cattle enjoying
this beautiful time.
Happy Fall, Ben

Member Tip: The Importance of Breeding SeasonSubmitted by: Dan Webster, Lynx River CC
Breeding season is a time of year when the size and quality of next year's calf crop is determined. So thoughts of nutritionand body score are important to the herd's reproductive efficiency. There is a lot of talk about grass fed beef. The qualityand quantity of grass and hay should be looked at carefully. It should be tested for TDN (total digestive nutrients). Vitaminsand minerals are also an essential part of the feeding program. The breeding season is an important time for producersand could impact whether your cattle are making a profit or on the losing end. Whether you want cattle to calve in thespring or fall, thought should be given to the kinds of management that could improve efficiency in beef herds. Herdhealth and nutrition programs directly influence calving outcomes. Adequate nutrition is vital as cows in poor conditionare not likely to conceive. In a 10 cow herd if 2 cows do not put a calf on the ground it could mean the difference betweena profit or a loss. So the extra thought to the feeding program could mean a difference between a profit or a loss.
Another factor that could have a dramatic effect on calving rates and beef returns is the fertility of the herd bull. A simplebreeding soundness evaluation is an inexpensive way to realize a bull's potential. Even a marginal improvement in calvingpercentage can have an important impact on the bottom line. Another important consideration is bull quality. Buying aninexpensive bull often can be the last way you want to try to save money. Saving money on a questionable bull can easilybe the difference between a profit and a loss. Just because it made it around the show ring twice doesn't mean it willproduce the best in the field.
The University Extension Services have a variety of resources available to help with any aspect of beef herd management.

Advanced Cow Training Cow Camp by Paige Proctor
The North Central Highland Cattle Association hosted its first annual Advanced Cow Training Cow Camp (or A.C.T.for short) this past August at Four T Acres in Burlington, Wisconsin. We had a total of six juniors from Wisconsinand Michigan attended, and had a great time learning and working with our animals.
Calley came over and demonstrated different halter breaking techniques to prepare animals for shows. Wediscussed ways to work with difficult animals and learned many new techniques. Afterwards, everyone had theopportunity to weigh the animal they were working with, and later had the chance to use weight tapes toestimate weights as well. Dave Larson talked about handling animals, and discussed how he set up his handlingfacility. We got to take a hay ride farm tour and see the cattle at Four T Acres. On Saturday afternoon, we headedover to Lake Geneva Country Meats to tour their meat processing plant. We got to walk through their facility andlearn about how they process livestock after they’re butchered. We also learned about how they smoke many oftheir well-known and award winning products such as brats and sausages. Afterwards, we headed back to thefarm to roast hotdogs and marshmallows over the campfire. While we were at cow camp, we also tie dyedpillowcases, learned about fitting and clipping, and had a showmanship clinic. Each junior also led an animalthrough an obstacle course, which was a great bonding activity for us and our animals. Cow camp ended onSunday with Four T Acres farm picnic. Thank you to Four T Acres for hosting and everyone who helped makecamp possible!
The 2017 A.C.T. Cow Camp is in the works and will be held at Windemere Farm, dates to be announced. We hope you can join us!
