[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 145300, member: 539"] It's a matter of personal preference. For years we knife-castrated, now we band simply because it's easier and some years the cows are in a dry-lot situation. Banding produces less bleeding, and less chance of infection if you are in a dry-lot situation. If you're castrated/banded calves are released onto pasture I can't see that much difference. [/QUOTE]
