Stockmanship Training Videos Available

Stockmanship Training Videos Available

The National Dairy FARM Program released a stockmanship training video earlier this year as part of the program’s partnership with the National Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) program.

The 27-minute video is divided into several chapters, including “Point of Balance,” “Understanding the Flight Zone” and “Utilizing Tools to Effectively Move Cattle.” The video can serve as a training resource to satisfy the FARM Animal Care Version 3.0 requirement for annual employee training.

The video, directed by Robert Hagevoort,  New Mexico State and the U.S. Dairy Education & Training Consortium, is available on the FARM Program website http://nationaldairyfarm.com/dairy-stockmanship-training in both English and Spanish.
