Grass-fed Dairy Research Roundup

Join eOrganic for a webinar on the carbon footprint of organic grass-fed dairies!

Recording available at https://eorganic.org/node/35251

About the Webinar

The webinar will be 45 minutes long, followed by 30 minutes for questions, and the presentation will consist of 2 parts:

Part 1: Carbon Footprint of Organic Grass-fed Dairies using the Integrated Farm System Model (IFSM), by Dr. Kleves Veira de Almeida, Postdoctoral Research Associate, University of New Hampshire: The Integrated Farm System Model is a research and educational tool for assessing the production performance, economic aspects, and environmental impact of farm systems. Our goal is to assess the main physical and biological processes focused on nutrient utilization of organic grass-fed dairy farms in order to optimize this food production system and evaluate its environmental impact.

Part 2: Impact of pasture composition and forage energetics on organic, grassfed dairy cattle production, by Miriam Snider, University of Vermont: Using an in vitro model, we evaluated the impacts of commonly utilized forages on rumen fermentation, animal energetics, and methane production. Our main goal is to determine what forages, or forage mixtures, should be used in pasture systems to improve organic, grassfed dairy animal production while evaluating potential impacts to the environment.

FAQs for Learn Calendar Users:

Will a recording be available?

That is entirely up to the host of this webinar/online event. If this is an Extension Foundation hosted event - we will update this calendar listing with a link to the recording usually within 48 hours. Keep in mind, many of the offerings found here in Connect Extension are brought to you by your colleagues across the system. While we encourage them to update their listings with recordings, it is entirely up to them.

How do I know if it is an Extension-hosted event?

Extension Foundation posts publicly our events to two calendars - the Extension Foundation Member Calendar and the Opportunities for Cooperative Extension Calendar.  All other events coming from across Cooperative Extension are posted to the Learn Calendar or to one of the regional calendars. All calendars populate to the same main calendar on Connect Extension. To tell the difference between what events are posted to what calendars easily, you'll see the name of the calendar posted above the title of the event if you scroll to the top.
