outreach overview
- Environmental management, nutrient management, soil fertility, CAFO. My focus is dairy extension in the area of nutrient management and environmental impact. This work allows me to observe evolving critical questions in the field and to work with faculty and staff in AS, BEE and CSS to address the issues and extend information back to producers, field staff and farm advisors.
