Cornell Cooperative Extension’s Regional Dairy Specialists and Cornell PRO-DAIRY would like to invite dairy producers, employees, and agribusiness professionals across the state to join a free, upcoming webinar focused on management practices for feeding cows. This virtual learning opportunity will be offered as a two-day event in English on Tuesday, November 3rd and Thursday, November 5th from 1pm – 2:30pm. The same information will be presented in Spanish on Tuesday, November 10th and Thursday, November 12th from 1pm – 2:30pm. Registration is required ahead of time by clicking here.
This virtual learning opportunity will be presented over ZOOM with demonstrations videos, presentations, and discussion. Each two-day school will cover the topics of monitoring dry matter content in forages, managing the feed in front of the cows, dealing with the forage bunk face, and troubleshooting issues that may arise with the mixer wagon when combining feed. Following best management practices around handling forages and feeding dairy cows can promote health, productivity, efficiency, and profitability of a herd.
