(University of Missouri-Columbia, College of Agriculture, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1978)
Career development events as a predictor of fall-to-fall retention of first-year college students
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
examined whether participation and performance in agricultural education CDEs in high school can predict retention of first-year, first-time, full-time college students enrolled in agricultural sciences at a regional, Midwest, public university...
Implications of ovarian and uterine maturity evaluated in replacement heifer candidates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
of heifers via reproductive tract evaluation. Disparities in ovarian and uterine maturity may be detected at the time of evaluation in peripubertal heifers. Two experiments were conducted to characterize the incidence and implications of disparate ovarian...
