The 2024 Central New York Dairy Day: Milking Forages for All They’re Worth

The 2024 Central New York Dairy Day: Milking Forages for All They’re Worth will be held in two locations this year, but the agendas will be the same.

This year’s speakers, Rick Grant and Ev Thomas, both recently retired from the Miner Institute, and you have most likely read articles they have written in Hoard’s Dairyman and Progressive Dairy. They often answer questions in Hoard’s “Questions from our Readers” section on dairy and crop production. Both of them bring a lifetime of experience in research and the practical application of management decisions at Miner Institute. Located in Chazy NY, The William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute’s principal function is the economic improvement of agricultural operations through research, education, and demonstration. Miner Institute conducts research programs that apply basic science to contemporary problems confronting the dairy industry. The areas of focus include the crop-animal-environment interface, milk analysis as a herd management tool, cow comfort, and behavior. While conducting research, their 625-cow herd boasts a nearly 32,000 lb. herd average with 4.2% butterfat and 3.1% protein!
