  • Follow IN Faith

    Candace Erickson|Mar 29, 2023

    One night I had a nightmare and woke up drenched in fear. I had to take a moment to calm my heart and back up into my husband - that's my fend-off-the-monsters position. My husband's “got my back,” and I can keep an eye on the other direction. It's been very successful up to this point.

  • Notes From Nelson

    Ken M. Nelson, County Extension Agent|Mar 29, 2023

    Late winter and early spring is the most challenging time of the year for the nutrition of spring-calving beef cows. Unless cool season grasses are available, this is a season where maintaining or gaining body condition on spring calving cows is really quite difficult. Warm season grasses have not yet to begin to grow. Dormant grass (what little is left) is low quality feed. Cows cannot, or will not, consume a large amount of standing dormant grass at this time of year. If the only supplement being fed is a self-fed, self-limited protein...
