MISSION
Cattleland’s Integrated Beef Research Station's mission is to deliver the most accurate, dependable and proficient service to the industry, through our research scientists, staff and state of the art facilities.
Cattleland`s Integrated Beef Research Station (IBRS) is situated in the heart of Alberta’s cattle country. Our commercial research involves exclusive and confidential trials to validate new pharmaceutical and feed ingredient products and/or protocols that enhance weight gain, have a health benefit or reduce handling and stress. The in-house component is geared toward improving efficiencies of Cattleland’s feedlot, backgrounding and cow-calf operations, as well as adding value for producer clients in the bull test program. Toward that end, most of the In-house research at the moment is focused on Genomics, and Residual Feed Intake (RFI) testing.
