NCTA features cattle handling expertNebraska The Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture recently hosted Dr. Lynn Locatelli, a nationally-known low stress cattle handling expert, as part of their annual Cow-Calf College May 15 to 17. Dr. Locatelli, who practices in Benkelman at Twin Forks Veterinary Clinic, led sessions and a hands-on demonstration aimed at showing students that "low stress handling techniques are one of the best returns on investment that a cattle producer can make." She was assisted in her demonstration by Clint Hoss, who has spent the last 12 years working in a western Nebraska feedlot. The Cow-Calf College was the first course held that is part of the new 100-Beef Cow Ownership Outreach Program recently launched at NCTA. The Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture, in cooperation with its sister institution, the West Central Research and Extension Center, have a long tradition of serving the Nebraska agriculture industry. NCTA is dedicated to providing its students with a dynamic education in agriculture and an understanding of important economic factors that are important to rural Nebraska's future.
