About the speaker
Dr. Grandin will be speaking on animal behavior and her humane methods of handling animals for processing. In North America, almost half of the cattle are handled in a Grandin-designed system. She has designed chutes, loading ramps, corrals and stockyards for local farmers such as Bonner Farms Beef and Market (Portage, pictured above) and The Ohio State University Agricultural Technical Institute in Wooster as well as national and international producers such as McDonald’s, Texas Pride Processing and clients in Canada, Europe, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand.
