The objectives of
University of Maine Cooperative Extension’s dairy and livestock
programs are to help producers increase the profitability of their
operations through improved nutrition, reproduction, genetics, health,
management, and marketing. We assist producers in adopting new technologies,
such as computers, decision support tools, predictive models, testing strategies
and integrated whole farm systems. We also help dairy and livestock producers
identify problem areas that limit long-term productivity. Educational programs
are helping people improve farm communications, form management teams, manage
labor effectively, develop strategic plans, and
incorporate new management skills into their operations.
UMaine Extension’s
dairy and livestock programs enable producers to better manage renewable
resources, such as soil, water, nutrients, crops, buildings, equipment,
and people.
