The eighth annual Nebraska Grazing Conference will be held August 12-13, 2008 at the Kearney Holiday Inn. A panel of grazing managers will discuss how they have been adapting to high feed and fuel costs. Speakers from Kansas, Montana, and Nebraska will talk about marketing grass-fed beef, modifying animal behavior, and transitioning to organic production.

A session for students will focus on grazing-related career opportunities. Winter grazing, wildlife and grazing, land monitoring, feeding ethanol coproducts, and meals fill out the conference agenda.
