Managing rations and feed drops starts on day 1 and doesn't end until the ship day. It's certainly an art and a science with ever changing ways to improve health and gain. As good stewards we should not seek to improve one at the cost of the other. #cattlefeeding #AnimalWelfare

Is a brown egg or a white egg healthier? Trick question! There is no nutritional difference in eggs based on their color! Did you know the color of a chicken's ear lobe actually determines the color of the chicken's egg? Happy National Chicken Month!

Browsing endless catalogs and testing out samples…for seeds?! That’s right. Belinda is testing 13 corn seeds this year, and she’s pumped about the results so far. findourcommonground.com/blog… #corn #womenfarmers

It seems like late in the day to early evening can be the most intense time for heat and loss of wind speed. The sprinkler system we have shows really well here. #animalwelfare #sprinklers #cattle

Easy recipe alert! Morgan's #July4th fruit float is a patriotic crowd-pleaser. Let your crew make their own, and don't forget the long spoons. Check out a recipe video at commongroundnebraska.com/fru….

Happy birthday Nebraska! Did you know 1 in 4 jobs in our state are related to agriculture? Nebraska is also #1 in popcorn, Great Northern beans and processing over 7 million head of cattle. We are a protein producing state! #HappyBirthdayNebraska #beef #beans #popcorn

@CommonGroundNE is a group of farm women having conversations about how food is grown and produced. This morning, @drsplace had the opportunity to speak with the group sharing her knowledge on greenhouse gas emissions, water, and the environment as they relate to animal ag.

What are you cooking for Sunday dinner? DYK harmful bacteria in raw or undercooked meat & poultry have no scent or taste & cannot be seen? That’s why it’s important to use a food thermometer to verify your food reaches a safe temp➡️ fsis.usda.gov/food-safety/sa… #FoodSafety

You won't find any beef in the store that contains harmful antibiotic residues. 🥩 All meat is tested for antibiotic residues before it reaches grocery store shelves! bit.ly/2V4OTXs

We spent a lot of years watering little trees to get them this tall helping to minimize gusty, north winds in the winter. #nebraskaweather #winter

We've put together a new video explaining how GMO crops can help with global biodiversity issues, from helping to preserve land, to using less water, and to helping fight climate change. Check out the video and then visit the GMO Answers website to learn more about GMOs. #COP15

"What's #Thanksgiving like on a #turkey farm? Probably a lot like yours but with farm chores added in. We host 30 family members at our place, which is handy in case we get a new load of turkeys on Black Friday." - Katie Olthoff, ChopLocal co-owner, IA turkey farmer

Corn is a classic Thanksgiving side dish, and Joan Ruskamp gives it a scrumptious update with an easy casserole! #corn #thanksgiving #easyrecipes

DYK that refrigeration slows but does not prevent bacterial growth? Fresh (not frozen) raw turkey, chicken & ground poultry should be cooked or frozen within 1-2 days of purchase? Cooked leftovers should be eaten or frozen within 3-4 days! #FoodSafety
