Join the Dairy Calf and Heifer Association (DCHA) for the Annual Conference in Westminster, Colorado, April 8-10. Visit dairycalfandheifer.org
Two heifer growers from two different parts of the country join us today: TJ McClure joins us from southwest Kansas, and Kendall Wassenaar from northwest Iowa, to chat about the strategies they have been using to overcome challenges on their heifer development operations, including:
Recruiting labor in a county with only 1,200 people,
Problem-solving pink eye in heifers
Strategies for increasing operational efficiency and reducing man hours
And the organization through which these two connected a few years back, the Dairy Calf and Heifer Association.
As current DCHA President, Kendall gives highlights for the 2025 annual conference, set for April 8-10 in Westminster, Colorado, and TJ, a past president and current DCHA board member, shares what he is looking forward to at this year’s premier event.
