Adam’s, Brown, Clermont and Highland Extensions have held four BQA certifications for cattle producers during the fall of 2018. We offered two at the Union Stockyards in August, one at United Producers in September and another in October. If you attended one of those and have not yet received your card, please call the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association at 614-873-6736 and ask for the BQA Coordinator Stephanie.
