We attended the first Annual "Grazefest" in Montgomery, AL. See http://www.usgrassfed.com/_wsn/page4.html for details.

If you ever expect to develop a grass-fed cattle program, then the speakers at this meeting merit your attention. You can read several of them in papers like AcresUSA http://www.acresusa.com/magazines/magazine.htm

and The Stockman Grass Farmer. http://www.stockmangrassfarmer.com/sgf/

I especially appreciated the insights on how Spring grass raises the CLA levels in the beef and investigations on alternatives to stress related with shipping to slaughter.
