Dairy
Program Representative - Vacant at this time
In
Dairy Science, specific programs address the complex issues of
animal health and welfare, dairy waste management, and water quality.
Programs developed in the North Bay have national scope, serve
to improve the quality and safety of milk and dairy foods, and
encourage environmentally sound dairy management.
The
dairy program sponsors North Coast Dairy Day, an annual seminar
supported by the University of California and donations from local
dairy businesses. At this event, dairy farmers attend workshops
on such topics as heifer replacement, equipment sanitation, nutrition,
and pasture management. For more information on this and other
dairy-related programs, call (707) 565-2621.
