Position Summary
For over 30 years PRO-DAIRY has linked New York's dairy farmers and agribusiness professionals to critical research and resources, giving them the information they need to build and manage robust businesses. PRO-DAIRY's contributions to educational programming and applied research have helped New York farmers continue to lead in milk production and remain among the top dairy states. According to national agriculture statistics, New York has been a national leader in dairy growth for the past 10 years. Through its research, discussion groups, educational programs, financial analysis, websites, publications and personal contacts, the Cornell University based program reaches thousands of dairy professionals annually.
This position will provide direct operational leadership and support for the Dairy Profit Monitor (DPM) Program, involving monthly analysis for dairy farms and the continued development and use of educational materials in support of the program.
