[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1768503, member: 1715"] There are a lot of cattle management ideas published during a drought. Not my favorites because they are usually focused on minimizing losses. There are also some management ideas published before a drought. They tend to be longer term efforts, but I am OK with that. My favorites are increasing soil OM and running some sacrificial yearlings along with the cows. A few retained heifers could be sacrificial, but you really need more numbers than that. Perhaps two or even three yearlings per cow if you have the right kind of pasture. [/QUOTE]
