Forum: Dairyforums.com -- Dairy Discussion Topics

If you don't see a dairy topic above that fits your interest, here's a "catch-all" forum where anything goes that's related to dairy.

Financial topics, Employee Management, Expansion and Permitting

Adding a new barn or parlor? Want to upgrade your cow cooling system? Debate the merits of mats vs. sand?...

A healthy cow is a productive cow. While it's not OK to offer medical advice (unless you are a doctor), it's perfectly OK to talk about health issues or share information or ideas here.

Improving pregnancy rates, success stories, techniques, links to university information, advances in genetics, ways to increase a herd's genetic quality, etc....

Talk about shows and sales. Results, Prices, Opinions?

General discussions related to production improvement that might not fit neatly into other categories.........

Milk quality standards , SCC -- How low can you go? Keeping those somatic cell counts as low as possible....

Whether you want to talk about forage quality, storage, feedout or balancing rations, this is the place to share information about those topics.

Everything from seed selection to silage management...

Let's talk tractors and post pictures. Anything about any dairy equipment is fair game here.

Has your dairy been picketed yet? Has your coop been co-opted by activists? Animal rights groups pounding on your barn door? Share thoughts on dairy "activist" issues....

There's a growing trend toward rural families who "lifestyle" farm, perhaps with a few milk cows for family use, and maybe a garden from which produce is sold to passing city dwellers. If your milk production interest falls into this area, we hope this forum will be a place to improve your productivity too.

Here's where you can talk about practically whatever you please. This is the place to discuss current events, or anything that might not fit neatly into another general category.
