Keeping your animals in the right body condition strongly impacts reproduction success, growth of suckling calves, and maximizing the efficiency of feeding the cows throughout the year.

• Practice Body Condition Scoring on a group of cows, several different scoring aids provided
• Body Condition Score as it relates to reproduction and health
• How to adjust for feeding thin cows, over-conditioned cows, and those in ideal body condition
