One of the most critical times producers will need to implement strategies to prevent heat stress is when scheduling handling or transporting activities. During these times, cattle will be experiencing a “double dose” of stress – stress from handling and transport, and stress from the heat. Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) guidelines suggest that producers should strive to refrain from handling or transporting cattle between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., the hottest hours of the day. However, guideline authors understand that the beef industry does not stop because of a hot day. Therefore, BQA guidelines suggest that producers schedule cattle handling or transport before the temperature-humidity index (THI) exceeds 74. If cattle must be handled when the THI is greater than 75, the BQA program encourages beef producers to use precautions and BQA • CONTINUED FROM PAGE 36 implement strategies to best protect cattle during extreme heat events. The best way for producers to determine when heat conditions have reached the point in which they need to implement strategies to reduce cattle heat stress is by using the Cattle Temperature Humidity Index (Figure 1). As an example, when the temperature is 98° F and the humidity is 30 percent, the THI is 83, which is just inside the danger zone for cattle. Being proactive rather than reactive is important for avoiding any train wrecks when it comes to heat stress.
