Calf Congress 2013


Join other progressive dairy producers and agriservice professionals to learn more about the latest technologies available.



Back by popular demand, Calf Congress 2013 (formerly the Group-Housed Calf Systems Symposium) will be held on December 4-5, 2013 at the RIT Inn & Conference Center in Rochester, New York. This innovative conference, organized by the NWNY Team of Cornell University Extension in conjunction with the PRO-DAIRY Program, will kick off with an evening session on December 4 designed specifically for those producers that are using a group housing and feeding system. The day-long symposium program on December 5 is devoted to understanding effective decision making in raising healthy and productive replacements. Conference attendees will hear first-hand stories of measured results of on-farm innovations, new concepts in calf performance assessment and how to choose the next generation candidates early in the process.

Further information, including a detailed agenda and registration information can be located at www.nwnyteam.org or by contacting Cathy Wallace, Conference Coordinator at (585) 343-3040 x 138 or cfw6@cornell.edu. Early registration deadline is November 22, 2013.
