ANCRAMDALE, N.Y. — Our next monthly webinar will take place on Monday, March 8 at noon (Central time). Jim Davenport, a dairy farmer from Ancramdale, N.Y., will present “Clean cows make clean milk.”
According to Davenport, “The most important contact surface on the dairy is the teat and the cow attached to it.” He will share the tools they use to ensure only the highest quality milk goes into the tank. This attention to detail has earned the farm six platinum milk quality awards from the National Mastitis Council.
Hoard’s Dairyman launched its free webinar series nine years ago in conjunction with the University of Illinois. These educational sessions are held the second Monday of each month and are broadcast live from noon until 1 p.m. (Central time). Attendees are encouraged to submit questions before, during, and after the webinar. They will be answered at the conclusion of the presentation.
Each hour-long webinar includes nationally known and carefully selected presenters who discuss the most timely and relevant challenges faced by today’s dairy producers. Past topics include finance, nutrition, milk quality, herd care, milk marketing, and dairy policy.
