Beef Fitting & Showmanship

Showmanship is more than entering the show arena during the fair or livestock show. It includes all the hard work that exhibitors put into their project from the first day they purchase their animal. Many factors enter into the equation for a successful showman, including halter breaking, nutrition, the skill of the showman, and the daily care and grooming. All the hard work done throughout the year will be worthwhile on show day. Source: MSU Extension

Beef Cattle Study Guides

Beef cattle production is a strong animal industry within the United States and throughout the world. Since beef cattle can graze forages in the open range and pasturelands, they serve a unique role in providing high-quality protein for human consumption from byproducts and forage sources that humans and non-ruminant animals do not consume.
