Stay tuned for our next episode, where we talk with Dr. Caleb Reichhardt, who is the Assistant Professor of Livestock Production at UH Manoa, along with some of his graduate students and their current small ruminant research projects!
To better understand locally raised sheep in Hawaii as it relates to their nutritional status and management practices, we have created a survey to gather data from local sheep producers like you to assist us in understanding the nutritional management of your herd. Together with the survey and collaborating producers, we aim to enhance nutritional outreach programs for small ruminants in Hawaii and cater to the needs of producers more effectively.

Aloha and thank you for tuning in for season 2 of Livestock Wala'au! In this episode we’re going to share about the Beef Cattle Ownership Analysis Web-based decision support tools created by Dr. Dillion Feuz. Many cattle producers face uncertainty when selling calves at weaning or if they are retained through a background program. Here in Hawaii, beef cattle producers have additional concerns when retaining ownership especially overseas due to ocean/air freight rates and varying availability.
You can also tune in to S1 Ep 10 to learn more about Dr. Feuz.
Let us know how you think you will be able to use these tools in your operation by completing our feedback survey at the link below!
