We hope that everyone is enjoying the start to their summer! (Sorry Fourth Years)
While summer is an excellent time to rest and recharge on your journey through school, we want to encourage everyone to try and set up some time with either a cattle veterinarian or a cattle producer.

Both groups are extremely knowledgable and in our experience are more than happy to share their knowledge and teach you no matter your background.

If you are a practitioner or a producer and want to get involved please reach out to us at [email protected]

Happy Earth Day! Our hard working Ranchers and Farmers are the original environmentalists.

Based on an assessment of data by the American Farm Bureau Federation, the Agricultural Sector between 2021 and 2022* there has been a
- 12-million-metric-ton reduction in greenhouse gas emissions;
-2.1% reduction in livestock GHG emissions;
-1.7% reduction in crop cultivation emissions; and
-1.2% reduction in fuel combustion emissions.
*Most Recent Data Available

The article can be accessed here: https://www.drovers.com/news/beef-production/agriculture-emissions-fall-lowest-levels-10-years

Livestock Veterinarians play a key role in helping animals and their care takers become more efficient. We also play a key role in educating the public about agriculture. I would encourage everyone to not take either role lightly.

There is a lot of confusing information out there about cattle and the environment. We advise that factual sources should always be consulted when dealing with topics like this. Some that we recommend are listed below.

If you are involved in agriculture I encourage you to make one post this week sharing facts and good news about it! Remember the internet is the only knowledge some people have of agriculture, seek to educate them.

Our Story

The Student Chapter of the American Association of Bovine Practitioners (SCAABP) at Colorado State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences is a student run, non-profit organization that strives to enhance our veterinary education related to bovine medicine, handling, disease prevention and education. We are composed of over 115 veterinary student members who are interested in working with cattle after graduation from CSU. We host seminars, distinguished speakers, and hands-on labs throughout the year. Our aim is to encourage support for a field of veterinary medicine that is an integral part of the agricultural industry and especially our community here in northern Colorado.
