Click around our freshly retooled Web site — www.beefmagazine.com. Launched last month, the redesign offers one-stop buttons to information-rich, category sections such as genetics, markets, health, nutrition and pasture/range, to name a few. Other new features include easy-to-find links to updated resources on feed composition values, the latest in fencing products and suppliers, animal ID suppliers, estate planning and biosecurity.

In addition, current weather has been added to the site, as well as a host of other handy links to BEEF magazine's monthly content, its four newsletters and four Web sites. Over the coming months, we'll be adding commodity reports, audio downloads and the opportunity for readers to post online comments and discussion on our editorial coverage.
