By 2025 Sunbelt Ag Expo Social Media Intern, Shelby Wentz
Curt Pate, a well-featured and honored speaker in the cattle industry, is known for his engaging clinics and real-world ranching insights. From the beautiful state of Montana, Pate travels across the country sharing profitable, sustainable livestock handling that meets the demands of today’s cattle industry.
At the Stockmanship and Stewardship clinics, Pate mainly focuses on animal well-being, their contentment in their environment, and the trust you and your animal herd can have. Through his calm, hands-on teaching approach, he demonstrates to producers how to properly handle livestock, which not only benefits the animal but also the rancher. One point he made was the relationship you can have with a grain bucket when you are gaining trust of your herd.
Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) strategies are used in beef cattle operations to guide producers on best management practices for their animals. By attending Curt Pate’s seminar, you can earn up to two or three BQA credits, which are needed for certification. To learn more information, attend Curt Pate’s last seminar session on Thursday at 2:00 pm in the Priefert area of the Sunbelt Ag Expo grounds or online at https://sunbeltexpo.com/stockmanship-stewardship/.
