This paper examines the environmental factors influencing
the die-off and transport of fecal coliform bacteria
present in wastes applied to the land surface. These factors
are examined specifically for dairy waste management systems
and the net effect each system has on runoff water quality.
A model is developed that considers...
As the capital requirements for the modern dairy enterprise increase, the Oregon milk producer and his lender need more information concerning the profitability, solvency and liquidity of the enterprise on which to base their financial decisions. This research examines three areas where more information could be used to
evaluate financial...

The following are 10 important measures of a herd’s production performance, including milk, butterfat and protein production, breeding efficiency, milk quality as it relates to udder health, and cow turnover.
Discusses how to choose the best type of animal for your needs and briefly mentions issues related to feeding and breeding. Provides information on safely using milk, either fresh or in butter, yogurt, or animal feed.
Bacteria use milk nutrients that remain on your dairy equipment to grow and multiply between milkings. The most important step in reaching top milk quality is to remove all milk residues (or “soil”) after each milking.
Science is involved in many areas of dairying. The 4-H
Dairy Science Project emphasizes the "why's" of dairying. The
information you learn here should help you with other dairy projects.
You will learn some of the "why's" of selection, nutrition, milk
secretion, and reproduction as well as "how to do...

People living in the suburbs and owning a small acreage often select dairy cattle or dairy goats as a means of harvesting and using their forage. Milk production can reduce the family grocery bill. Goats, especially, will help control brush and weeds and keep the area from becoming unsightly.

A constructed wetland receiving pasture runoff from a dairy in Tillamook, OR was monitored during the winter of 1997-98 in order to estimate coliform treatment efficiency during winter high flow periods. Monitoring occurred during four sampling periods, each lasting 2 to 4 days. Samples were taken every two hours from...

With the expansion of the Tillamook Creamery, in Tillamook Oregon, to double or more
its cheese production, the demand for milk presents an economic opportunity for the member
dairies of the Tillamook County Creamery Association. Before area dairies can expand their
herd size to increase milk production for the creamery,...
