The National Mastitis Council (NMC) will host its 54th Annual Meeting, Feb. 1-3, 2015 at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis, Tenn.
This three-day international forum will provide milk quality professionals the opportunity to exchange information on udder health, milking management and milk quality. Anyone with a vested interest in milk quality – milk quality specialists, veterinarians, milk plant field staff, dairy suppliers, dairy producers, university researchers, extension specialists and students – is invited to attend and exchange ideas.
This year’s program will feature sessions including:
• Getting to the root cause of mastitis, a systems approach;
• Influence of equipment and environment on milk quality;
• Influence of people, monitoring and records on milk quality;
• Milk quality: What the market needs, wants, demands.
In addition to the main program, the Annual Meeting will include a variety of specialized short courses, committee meetings, open discussion groups, poster sessions plus research and development summaries. Additional program details will be available soon on the NMC website: www.nmconline.org.
