Dairy Listening Sessions with Mike Baker

September 12, 2018

Dr Mike Baker with Cornell University has been meeting with dairy producers across the state to see where the NY Beef Producer's Association can help dairy producers - whether it be in marketing bull calves and cull cows, to policy issues facing dairy producers.

Join us at Farm Credit East in Homer, NY to be a part of the discussion. We would like to keep the group size small and the discussion great, so space is limited to the first producers that respond.

RSVP to Betsy at bjh246@cornell.edu or 607.391.2673 to let her know you're coming!
