This summer I have the privilege of working with Michigan Milk Producers Association through Michigan State University's College of Veterinary Medicine Summer Food Systems Fellowship. Through this opportunity, I will be able to build on my understanding of food animal medicine through a better perspective of the industry side of things. I will be learning everything about the dairy industry including farm inspections, equipment analysis, environmental concerns, animal husbandry and welfare, milk processing, and much more. My main project will be traveling to dairy farms around the state that participate in MMPA's program called the Milking System Performance Assurance Program and administering a survey that will allow MMPA to make the program even more helpful and beneficial for producers.
