About The Dairy Challenge Team
The Dairy Challenge is a competition for students interested in dairy production and management. In this competition, team members evaluate the production information and management techniques of a dairy and make recommendations for improvement.
This competition allows students to apply theory and learning to a real-world dairy while working as part of a team. The team spends a morning evaluating a dairy operation and develops a comprehensive program for improvement. The evaluation by a team of experts is based on the analysis and recommendations to the dairy producer. This team competes at the Regional and National Dairy Challenge competitions, which rotates year-to-year between different land-grant universities.
