Boosting Milk Components is Topic of Hoard's Webinar

The next Hoard's Dairyman webinar will take place on March 13 at noon featuring Mike Hutjens, professor emeritus with the University of Illinois. He will present, "Strategies for boosting milk components."

Raising milk components is a way to add value to milk checks, especially for farmers that face volume restrictions. This presentation will cover feeding considerations, sources of milk components, using components as management tools, and genetic strategies to improve component production.
