The Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association is set to host the Cattlemen’s Education Series from July 25 to 26 at the 73rd Annual Convention and Trade Show in Norman, Okla. Speakers and learning opportunities covering a range of topics important to farm and ranch owners and managers will be included at this event, which is sponsored in part by The National Corn Growers Association.
This year’s Cattlemen’s Education Series will offer attendees logical and practical insights into
key industry topics. Sessions will include a weather outlook from meteorologist Matt Makens, a
deep dive into red meat yield innovations featuring Dr. Gretchen Mafi, Dr. Dale Woerner, and
Kelly Retallick, and a cattle market outlook presented by Dr. Derrell Peel. Attendees will also
explore the role of modern technology in remote ranching during a session led by guest speakers
Andrew Coppin and Maria Silveira.
“This year’s Cattlemen’s Education Series continues our commitment to equipping Oklahoma
cattle producers with the knowledge they need to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving industry,” said
Michael Kelsey, OCA Executive Vice President. “Our goal is to bring relevant, timely topics and
some of the best minds in the industry to the table, ensuring our members are prepared to
succeed in every aspect of their operations.”
