Newsletter Sponsorship Opportunities

We are pleased to offer the ability for businesses that serve our region to advertise with the Southwest New York Dairy, Livestock, and Field Crops Program!

Our two forms of publications feature research-based and timely information from our four specialists, listed to the right, along with local event notifications and Cornell University outreach. This information is provided to participants who range from dairy, livestock, and field crops producers to agricultural suppliers and consultants.

Our Weekly Email Update is shared with 430+ households who have signed up with our program. To reach our stakeholders and farmers who lack internet access, we send out a Monthly Paper Mailer where your company's logo and contact information would be featured with a mailing list of 235 households.

Sponsorship opportunities range from $100 - $400. If you are interested please contact Kelly Bourne by email or phone. klb288@cornell.edu | 585-268-7644 ext. 10

Grazing Sheep on Solar Arrays

January 24, 2022

This online Zoom class will look at the logistics and business of grazing solar arrays with sheep. Shepherds can get paid to graze solar arrays for the purpose of keeping the foliage below the level of the panels. Good grazing principles still apply and there are things to consider like fencing, water, moving animals and the timing of lambing. Join us to learn more about it from experienced grazers, Lewis Fox and Niko Kochendoerfer of Taconic End Sheep, LLC. Lewis and Niko own 400 Katahdin ewes in VT and operate Taconic End Sheep LLC. The flock grazes solar sites in the Northeast between May and October and moves back to VT for the Winter and lambing season.
