Explore the Benefits of Modern Dairy by Tuning in to AEM’s Upcoming Webinar

To celebrate National Dairy Month in June AEM, in partnership with Dairy Farmers of America and The National Milk Producers Federation, is pleased to present findings from the recently released Environmental Benefits of Modern Dairy, Hay and Forage Technologies study. This study aims to quantify the environmental benefits that modern technologies afford to these select operations. 

Scheduled for June 23 from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. CST, Vice President Sustainability Modeling & Measurement Fabian Bernal of Dairy Management Inc. will present the study’s findings, moderated by AEM’s Director of Agricultural Services Austin Gellings.  

The study shares benefits of dairy and the practices associated with modern dairy production, while debunking common myths and misconceptions about modern dairy practices. Additionally, it quantifies how far farmers have come and projects the achievements that can be reached by 2030 if the industry continues along the trend of innovation. The webinar will then discuss a roadmap for how the industry will start to achieve the goal of reaching net zero by 2050. 

AEM, The National Milk Producers Federation and Dairy Farmers of America continue to work together to advance technologies and practices that will bring the potential the study highlights to fruition including promoting policies that reward innovation, growing farm income, improving enabling infrastructure and improving consumer communication.

I officially left the farm today and abandoned Arnie to fend for himself on the sheep farm and in the kitchen. Watch as a sheep farmer copes with farm life minus the farm wife! You will see as he cooks two of his go-to meals, looks after the sheep dogs, plus lets the sheep out to the field and checks for tapeworms. He even takes you into the hayloft of the sheep barn to see where we used to store hay.
