Whether you’re just getting started raising beef cattle or you have been doing it for generations, there’s always something to learn. The Clinton County University of Missouri Extension Council is sponsoring a farm tour at a small beef operation near Plattsburg at 6 p.m. Thursday, July 13.
Leading the tour will be Extension Beef Specialist Jim Humphrey. He and farmer Corey Wilkinson will examine the farm’s features, including watering systems, cattle handling facilities and pas- tures. They will discuss the decisions that led to the farm’s configuration and weigh possible alternatives.
Following the tour, Extension Field Specialist in Agricultural Business Denise Ferguson will discuss business aspects of running a profitable small farm.
The event is free to the public but registration is requested. To register and get directions to the farm, go to: https://extension. missouri.edu/events/clinton-county-small-farmday. Or call 816-933-2138.
