The tour, presented by Cornell Cooperative Extension, will explore the beef industry of Canada's province of Ontario. Mike Baker, Cornell University beef extension specialist, will lead the tour, which will focus on the cow-calf and feedlot industries, as well as trade relations between the United States and Canada. One of the tour highlights will be an evening session with farmer-feeders to answer questions on cattle procurement, Holstein vs. beef, calves vs. yearlings and other practical research projects. The tour is scheduled to stop at purebred shorthorn and Limousin farms, commercial crossbreeding operations, F-1 heifer producers, feedlots, a livestock sale barn and Guelph University.
