Disclaimer and Cautionary Statement

This website contains links to university and government websites that contain a variety of fact sheets and research reports that are subject to change at any time.  

While these links connect to legitimate and knowledgeable sources of information, it is important to remember that what may be practical, applicable and legal in one area may not apply or be illegal in other areas.  Some of the resources we link to have been written specifically for certain regional or geographic areas.

It is always the responsibility of the beef producer to ensure that any information or recommendations taken are applicable and relevant to their unique situation. If you are unsure, seek assistance.  The University Links section can be used to find knowledgeable professionals and specialists in your region. 

For clarity purposes, trade names may be used in some resources. This is not intended to discriminate against similar products not mentioned or to recommend only those mentioned.

Due to constantly changing labels and product registrations, some recommendations may be out of date or illegal by the time you read them. Always read and follow label directions for pesticide and medication products.  If a label contradicts a specific recommendation, that recommendation must be disregarded.  Always follow the label.

Penton Media assumes no liability resulting from the use of, or following, any of these recommendations.
