Yahara Pride Farms will host its annual Watershed-Wide Conference at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, at Comfort Inn & Suites, 5025 County Road V, DeForest.
The keynote speaker is Frank Mitloehner, who is a professor and air quality specialist in cooperative extension in the Department of Animal Science at the University of California-Davis. Professor Mitloehner’s research and experiences have strong implications for Dane County and the future advancements of animal agriculture and mitigating climate change.
As such, he shares his knowledge and research, both domestically and abroad, with students, scientists, farmers and ranchers, policy makers, and the public at large. He is also director of the CLEAR Center, which has two cores – research and communications. The CLEAR Center brings clarity to the intersection of animal agriculture and the environment, helping our global community understand the environmental and human health impacts of livestock, so we can make informed decisions about the foods we eat and while reducing environmental impacts.
Lunch will be provided.
