"The Oklahoma Beef Cattle Manual" has been a key resource for beef cattle producers, Extension professionals, veterinarians, and many others associated with the beef cattle industry since 1983. The Manual aims to enhance the profitability of beef operations and the quality of life of beef cattle producers by equipping them with vital information on all aspects of beef production, business planning, risk management and marketing. It includes sections on economic issues, forage, nutrition, breeding, herd health, the environment for raising cattle and beef industry issues. The Seventh Edition of the Manual is the result of a team effort by faculty and staff in the Division of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources and Extension Area Specialists.
