Southeastern Arizona Livestock
Livestock Management
Range livestock production is a significant part of the economic base of Southeastern Arizona. Education focuses on herd health and welfare, nutrition, reproduction, marketing, breeding and genetics, meat quality assurance, niche marketing, and rangeland health with the overall goal of improved profitability and long term sustainability. Programs focus on Beef Cattle production, primarily with Cow-Calf producers, with a small amount of work in other livestock species such as equine, small ruminant, and backyard poultry.
