Recognizing and Addressing Cowherd Nutritional DeficiencesNutritional balance is a cornerstone of herd health and productivity. According to Dr. Kelly Sanders of Westway Feed Products, deficiencies often go unnoticed until performance suffers.
Signs Of Nutritional Deficiencies In Cattle- Poor Body Condition: Thin cows, visible ribs, or weak muscling.
- Reduced Fertility: Open cows, delayed cycling, or poor conception rates.
- Coat and Hoof Issues: Rough hair coats, brittle hooves, or slow shedding.
- Growth Challenges in Calves: Reduced weight gains or uneven growth patterns.
- Forage Testing: Identify nutrient gaps in hay and pasture.
- Targeted Supplementation: Provide liquid or block supplements to balance protein, energy, and minerals.
- Management Adjustments: Ensure adequate feed availability during high-demand stages such as lactation and breeding.
Dr. Sanders emphasizes that proactive nutrition not only boosts herd performance but also maximizes returns on investment in genetics.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
