New Livestock Resource Website from Cornell Cooperative Extension
[Ithaca NY, 05/04/22] - If you are looking for resources for producing and marketing livestock, then visit the NEW Cornell Cooperative Extension's Livestock Program Work Team website https://www.ccelivestock.com.
The CCE Livestock Program Work Team recognized New York livestock producers' needs to have a trustworthy central location for all things livestock and developed the website in response. The website is organized into themes based on species and information can be found on a variety of production topics including breeding and reproduction, nutrition, and health as well as marketing.
"Our goal is to continue adding resources and have it be the go-to place for workshops, trainings, and webinar recordings", states Nancy Glazier, Regional Small Farms/Livestock Specialist.
Dana M. Havas Ag Team Leader from CCE Cortland expressed "It is exciting to have extension livestock experts from all over the state working together to develop a robust and valuable collection of resources for our communities"
As the website grows we look forward to hearing how you use the website and invite you to tell us what you think by contacting the website administrator https://www.ccelivestock.com/contact-us.
The CCE Livestock Program Work Team is comprised of educators working to build a collaborative network of experts and resources to foster the success of livestock farms across New York State.
