Making The Grade

Dairy Farm, Dairy Farming, Making the grade on a dairy farm

Environmental practices on all dairy farms are tightly regulated by both federal and state agencies. While requirements vary from state to state, dairy farmers strive to consistently meet these standards. In fact, many farmers go beyond what is asked of them. They see the benefits every day when they step into their barnyards and reflect on the legacy they’ll leave to their children.
