Summary

​This project created a draft beef cattle husbandry training course for the conduct of all the normal animal husbandry procedures associated with beef cattle production.  The training materials were based on the principles and methods detailed in the MLA publication (2007) “A guide to best practice husbandry in beef cattle”.    The project did not proceed to piloting of the training course and was terminated following review of the draft training materials.
