"Cornell Cooperative Extension and Cornell PRO-DAIRY are excited to offer a sponsorship opportunity for our upcoming Hands-On Animal Care Dairy Training Program.'

This one-day program will be offered in four different regions across the state, in up to 8 separate locations on different dates. Topics covered will include stockmanship, calf care, non-ambulatory animals, euthanasia, and fitness for transport. Completion of the course will count as annually required continuing education credits for the FARM Animal Care Program. This program will include presentations and hands-on demonstrations on farm, and it will be offered in both English and Spanish.

Topics include health monitoring and reproduction, calf management, milking, feeding and nutrition, barn design and ventilation, and future technologies. The program will take place in March 2024. 

Sponsorship is offered at one level ($250) for the whole program. Sponsors will be recognized in all promotional materials and during the in-person program.
