Artificial Insemination Training Course
Guthrie County Extension and Outreach is offering a two-day, intensive hands-on artificial insemination class for those who wish to artificially inseminate their own cattle or gain experience to work for others. Students will spend each day of the course in classroom sessions and hands-on live practice on cattle at the Guthrie County Fairgrounds. Students will need to be prepared for getting dirty, as palpation of cattle will take place daily. Please dress for the temperature as the live practice on cows will be outdoors. Randy Dreher will be the instructor of this course. Register now. Friday Dec., 27 and Saturday Dec., 28 (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) Registration and payment due prior to course (payment to Guthrie County Extension). Contact Shelby at 641-747-2276 or shelbyvh@iastate.edu to register.
