Technology Tuesdays Webinar Series

About the Series

Technology Tuesdays is a series of free online workshops available to anyone with a computer and an internet connection. Designed for dairy producers, their employees and advisers, the focus of this year’s Technology Tuesdays webinar series is “Dairy Systems Planning and Building.” All sessions are held 8:30-10:00 a.m. (EDT/EST.)

The dairy system consists of all the physical bricks and mortar items on the dairy. The animal housing and milking system are a big part of this as are manure handling and storage, feed handling and storage, transition and special cows, and youngstock. While each of these individual components has unique design considerations, they must all be integrated into a complete system. The design of this system will affect the overall efficiency of the dairy and, therefore, the bottom line of the business. Time spent to properly plan is time well invested in the business.
