| The unit was moved from the old location
at Reedy Creek Road in 2002 to Lake Wheeler Rd.. The new beef unit
has approxiametly 110 acres of pasture land for the sixty brood
cows. At the beef unit they run two purebred herds. One of the
herds is Angus and
the other is Hereford.
The new facilities has plenty of working space in the new buildings.
There are three buildings on the property. The first being the
commodity building where all the feed is held for the cattle and their is
also a classroom and lab that can be used for feeding trials. The
other buildings house a large arena for shows and judging contest and
their is a classroom that can hold up to 50 students that helps to handle
the large amount of labs held at the unit. The new working facility
is fully operational with two working chutes and plenty of pens to hold
all of the cattle. |
