Special Considerations for Grazing Dairy CowsVideo: Special Considerations for Grazing Dairy Cows
Presented by Christine O'Reilly

The purpose of the Profitable Pasture conference is to bring fresh ideas and new research results to Ontario grazing managers across the ruminant livestock sectors. These conferences have a major focus on pasture management.
