Future Campus Developments
Integrated Dairy Facilities Phase 1, a facility at Marshfield
to do research on 360 dairy replacements should be completed by
fall 2003.
Partial funding for Phase 2 of the integrated dairy facilities
(improvements on campus, expansion at Arlington for lactating and
dry cows, and facilities for 320 more heifers and 128 milking cows
at Marshfield) has been included in the state budget for the 03-04
fiscal year. A federal partnership is in discussion which will contribute
to the Phase 2 Marshfield facilities and will hopefully provide
long term federal support for research concerning environmentally
sound dairy herd management. Additional private gifts are being
solicited to complete the Phase 2 construction costs not covered
by pending state and federal support.
