Livestock Wala'au

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.
