Northwest New York Dairy, Livestock & Field CropsColostrum and Calf Technologies
Join us for a dinner meeting with Penn State University's renowned calf specialist, Dr. Melissa Cantor. Dr. Cantor will show us new research into extended colostrum feeding both as a preventative therapy and an intervention strategy for sick calves. She will also delve into new uses of calf-hood technologies such as activity monitors, auto-feeders and the role that AI can play.
Dr. Melissa Cantor is an Assistant Professor in Precision Dairy Technology at Penn State University. She runs an applied research program that investigates new precision technologies and their impacts on all aspects of dairy cattle health and management. Her extension programs focus on "dairy calf success".
