U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center Webinar: USDFRC 2024 Update – Jan. 3

Please join us for a turn-of-the-year update. We will provide a vacancy update including positions we have filled and positions in the process of being filled. We’ll also address current vacancies that are in line to be advertised, as well as discuss our plans for addressing office and lab space shortages on the near and long-term. We’re also excited to share our progress on getting the construction started for the new dairy. Finally, we will lay out a plan for a revision and broadening of our stakeholder engagement strategy that we hope will continue our grassroots (pardon the pun) approach to prioritizing research efforts. Stay tuned for additional topics of interest. We look forward to you joining us!
