Lowering the Cost of Milk Production: Dairy and Beef Pasture Walk

June 12, 2018


Join us for a light lunch and tour of the pastures. There will be a review of previous Cornell Dairy Farm Business Summaries to compare the cost of production on grazing dairies and confinement dairies as well as a brief explanation of Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Crop Insurance Policies. Charlie Griskauskas and his sons are looking forward to having other graziers offer tips on how to better manage their pastures. 

RSVPs are appreciated, but not required. To register, call 607.391.2662 and leave a message or email Abbie Teeter at ajt248@cornell.edu.
