Topics of discussion during the session were pasture weed control, CAIP program, marketing beef cattle, pasture renovations, hay production, and other farm management topics. Many of the participants were funded for the first time on the CAIP program. They are using knowledge learned at these meetings to complete their CAIP projects and better their farming operation.
