Who Should Attend?

Dairy producers of all sizes and types!

The cost of doing business has dramatically increased since 2020.  This has significantly impacted all farms and their net profit potential.  The dairy-focused academy is pertinent to anyone wanting to transform their dairy into a highly efficient and profitable business and transform their quality of life. You will learn how to build soil, animal, and economic health through a combination of classroom and field exercises. The school will tackle the biggest issues facing dairy producers, from herd health and reproduction, to crop and cover crop success, to waste management and fertility, to economics and building true net wealth. Hands-on experience will be heavily emphasized.

Milk production is a fast-paced, highly demanding profession and dairy producers are highly skilled individuals.   We hope to broaden your perspective on using your expertise and advantages with practical tools that increase your options, reduce vulnerability, and strengthen your resilience.
