Abstract

We have had the advantage of hearing from Dr. Ed Jesse, Dr. Robert Cropp and Mr. Richard Catta, so we are better informed than only a few hours ago on the various --- and complicated, aspects of milk pricing and marketing, the shifting demographics of the dairy industry, and the challenges facing dairy producers in the years ahead leading us to the millennium.

Where will the food animal veterinary practitioner be in these coming years of change and challenge? What role will we play in helping to influence and shape the future of "our" dairy industry?
