Looking for producer input about transportation

Colorado State University is conducting a research survey to describe current industry practices regarding the transportation of  dairy or dairy x beef calves on milk in the United States. We want to hear from anyone making decisions about the transportation and/or receiving of dairy or dairy x beef calves on milk. That includes producers, owners, operators, or managers on dairies, calf ranches, heifer-raising facilities, and veal operations, as well as transportation drivers. Participants in the research must be over 18 years of age.

Thank you for taking the time to fill out this research survey. For each question that has a fill-in option, you are welcome to add your own selection if you feel it is not best described by one of the choices. The open-ended questions are intended for you to share your personal opinions or experiences. We anticipate the survey should take 15-20 minutes to complete.
Your responses are anonymous and will not be used for any purpose other than for our research. There are minimal risks to participating in this survey and you may choose to stop at any time. All responses will be summarized and reported at the aggregate level.
