(Time:16:57) This video provides basic information on the beef industry in Minnesota including terminology, production systems, economics and issues.

The training shows the tile design components of the WASCOB Design spreadsheet. This video finishes the basin system design started in the WASCOB Design Intro video. The tile design tabs and output pages will be explained through this recorded demonstration. The user will see where data is entered and get a better understanding of how to draft up and design the tile outlet system as part of the WASCOB practice. (Time: 19:22)
