Due to covid-land and also our just plain getting older, we have decided to expand our training into on-line courses as well as some travel as covid permits.
We will offer online courses on Livestock Marketing and Proper Stockmanship. We will post video lessons on password-protected web pages the class attendees can watch at their own time, then we will schedule zoom meetings with the class to discuss the materials and answer questions before we move onto the next lesson.
Proper Stockmanship Course
Using lecture, questions/answers, and videos, we will cover—
- Research benefits
- Pressure and release
- How we communicate with our livestock
- Instincts of humans and livestock
- Predator/Prey relationship
- Positioning and movement
- Training the herd
- At the gate and working in the corral
- Sorting, weaning, receiving, and loading
- Our attitude
Livestock Marketing Course
Using lecture, questions/answers, current market data, and actual math calculations, we will cover—
- Know and Understand Yourself

- Sell/Buy compared to Buy/Sell
