Emerging Trends in Beef Feedlots is the focus of the Iowa State University Feedlot Forum 2022. ISU Extension Beef Specialist Beth Doran says key presenters will focus on topics such as the evolution of traceable beef and what is pushing this trend.

She says cattle producers will get tips on proper implanting. Plus, NCBA officials will update cattle producers on the newly adopted U.S. Cattle Industry Feedyard Audit and the record keeping that’s being required for them to sell to certain packers.

ISU Livestock Market Economist Lee Schultz will round out the day with a cattle market outlook.

The Feedlot Forum will be held in Sioux Center Iowa on January 18.
