Feed Dealer's Meeting

Dr. Tom Overton (Cornell University, PRO-DAIRY Program)  and Joe Lawrence (Dairy Forage Systems Specialist, Cornell University, PRO-DAIRY Program)  will present some valuable insights into current nutrition and health topics.

These annual meetings provide an interchange of ideas that has been great over the years.
This is your opportunity to bring critical issues or questions of importance in the industry to our attention. Your input is extremely valuable to us in helping both campus and local Extension efforts for the benefit of the dairy industry
