This is a temporary location while I work with John Travlos, AgEBB, to make this site user-friendly. I have been putting together information with Microsoft Word. Therefore, there may be parts of this Web Site that are slow. And, there are parts of the Web site that are not completely developed. Over the course of the next few months I will be keeping you informed of what sections have been updated.
Society is increasingly concerned about environmental degradation, animal welfare, and food safety.
These issues are often magnified by the size, technology, and structure of modern production and processing operations. The appropriate response to these societal concerns and how production systems should be designed is not always clear. As producers and communities seek solutions, extension educators need to be in a position to respond effectively. Colleagues from across the region are invited to share innovative extension and applied research activities. Any topic related to extension work in the general area of animal food production systems will be considered.
