BEEF Seminars at World Ag Expo

Profitability in a Turn-Around Economy
Wednesday, February 10, 2010
World Ag Expo in Tulare, CA


Many people are looking to 2010 to be a better year in cattle country, given predictions for increased beef exports and improving economic conditions, both in the U.S. and abroad. And when the market does turn, there is strong upside in the cattle market. Will you be ready?

That's what the speakers at the 2010 World Ag Expo in Tulare, CA will address on February 10. BEEF magazine, the official beef publication of World Ag Expo, has put together a lineup of speakers, that will help cattlemen not only understand the challenges facing cattle producers in 2010 and beyond, but plan to succeed in a business faced with new and different challenges.

U.S. cattlemen can compete in a global marketplace. It is, in fact, a key optimism in the beef industry, and one of the reasons why BEEF magazine encourages producers to attend this event.
