A survey was conducted to document general characteristics of beef cattle management and identify producer concerns in Manitoba. The survey was divided into five sections: (i) characterization of farm operation, (ii) winter management, (iii) forage and pasture management, (iv) reproductive management and (v) factors limiting profitability and the use of non-traditional management tools. The surveyprovided base information for measuring change in the industry and identified cost of production, pasture, and reproduction as the top three factors that producers consider limiting the profitability of beef operations in Manitoba.
