Looking Ahead for Dairy Webinar-May 21

Over the last couple months, the dairy industry has experienced increased turmoil.   We’ve heard about milk being dumped, grocery stores limiting milk purchases, dairy markets sliding, and processors asking farms for continued reduced milk production.  What is going on and what can we do to get through this?

“Looking Ahead for Dairy” is the fifth webinar in the “Farm Management Through a Crisis: Part of the Supporting Farmers During Challenging Times Series”.  Please note the new start time of 11 am.

May 21 Agenda:

  • Dairy Markets: Where Are We At and Where Are We Headed? – Dr. Mark Stephenson, Director of the UW Center for Dairy Profitability
  • Taking Care of Yourself, So You Can Take Care of Business – Karen Dickrell, Human Development and Relationships Educator, Extension Outagamie County
  • Cash Flowing to the Other Side – Dr. Kevin Bernhardt, Professor of Agricultural Economics, UW-Platteville & UW Center for Dairy Profitability
