Description

The 2023 PDPW Herdsperson Workshop will take on today's most challenging cow-side topics with leading industry experts. English and Spanish-speaking herdspersons, dairy managers, nutritionists and veterinarians are invited to two reoccurring workshops on Wednesday, October 11 in Arlington, Wis., and Thursday, October 12 in Marshfield, Wis., from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. This high-level workshop will provide seasoned herd managers and dairy professionals with new insights and skills to better manage their herds.

This program will offer simultaneous Spanish translation.

During this program, participants will dive deeper into reproductive management, cow side care, liver metabolism, as well as a hands-on exploration of reproductive anatomy. Each afternoon, the classroom will move to the farm to apply concepts and discoveries from the morning sessions to an area dairy farm.

Breakout session topics include:
"Unlock high fertility" with Megan Lauber and Dr. Paul Fricke, PhD
"Make the most of cow-side care" with Dr. Jerry Gaska, DVM
"Optimize liver metabolism and production" with Dr. Usman Arshad, PhD, and Dr. Heather White, PhD
