ID-13: Beef Cattle Corrals and Handling Facilities

Curtis Absher, Roy Burris, Sam McNeill, Larry Turner | Apr. 1, 1986 (Reprinted)

Proven management practices such as castrating, dehorning, pregnancy examination, controlling parasites, implanting, vaccinating, etc. are essential if profits are to be realized in beef herds. Although most practices are relatively simple, they cannot be done easily without some type of restraining equipment which will prevent injury to both man and animal. The absence of cattle handling facilities probably contributes more than anything else to failure to perform these money-making procedures.
