How do genetics impact sustainability goals?
The U.S. dairy community has rallied around a public commitment to achieve carbon neutrality, optimize water usage, and improve water quality by 2050 — supporting global sustainability initiatives and customer expectations. Genetic selection is one part of the equation that will enable U.S. dairy farms and processors to collectively achieve this lofty goal.
How precisely do genetics impact sustainability both now and into the future? How do we demonstrate the contribution of genetic selection to reduce dairy’s environmental impact? What other aspects of sustainability — such as animal well-being and methane emissions — can be addressed through genetics?
We will explore these questions via thought-provoking panels and future-focused updates from producers, dairy customers, and geneticists.
