January 18, 2022 Webinar on Mastitis in First-lactation Organic Dairy Cows
Join eOrganic for a webinar on January 18, 2023. This webinar will provide a description of microorganisms leading to intramammary infections in first-lactation organic dairy cows, their risk factors and their relationship with udder health on the following lactation. The findings of a NIFA OREI funded research project provide important information that could be used to develop tailored mastitis control plans for first-lactation organic dairy cows. The webinar takes place at 11AM Pacific, 12PM Mountain, 1PM Central, 2PM Eastern Time. It's free and open to the public, and advance registration is required.

The Open-Community Resource for Organic Animal Microbiome Education and Research Project (or open-ROAMER) is a USDA OREI funded research project aimed at launching microbiome research within the organic livestock community. Outcomes from the research will produce new, evidence-based tools to combat livestock diseases and production challenges affecting dairy health.
