K-State Extension agronomist Tina Sullivan then covered approaches soybean producers can use to estimate their soybean yields. The program also included dairy specialist Mike Brouk, who encouraged dairy producers to think about their breeding programs and the potential impact that beef-on-dairy calves—born nine months later—could have on their operation.
