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

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.
