K-State Research and Extension is committed to a comprehensive animal science program that delves into various facets of livestock production such as genetics, health management, nutrition, reproduction, and production efficiency for species like beef cattle, dry cows, horses, poultry, sheep, meat goats, and swine.
Our livestock extension services are dedicated to tackling Kansas' significant challenges in sectors including water conservation, global and local food systems, rural development, and community vitality. We equip Kansas producers with the latest research-based solutions to enhance their current practices for safe food production.
Understanding the importance of future leadership, our programs also emphasize hands-on learning experiences through youth livestock initiatives that foster a new generation of leaders.
