Bulletins--These bulletins are summary publications from our research projects. A few of these publications are quite large files because of included graphics. You may wish to observe the file size before downloading.

Leaflets--Our Extension Education Committee has authored many leaflets covering a wide range of topics. The leaflets are typically 4-6 pages in length and quite readable.

Miscellaneous--There are several publications that just don't fall into a neat category group. These publications include: briefing papers have been written to help address immediate policy concerns, legal documents of milk control laws, etc.


Over the years we have authored many publications covering various aspects of the dairy industry. This collection by no means contains all of them but many subjects are covered. The search engine below may assist you in finding the right publication. It will search for the entered words in the text of all publications. Entering a phrase such as "fluid milk plant processing costs" will help to narrow down the relevant publications much more than "fluid milk plant".
