Jennifer Bentley, a dairy field specialist with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, discusses the aims of the current project including assessing prevalence and treatment options for common diseases affecting dairy goats, developing financial assessments and benchmarks for goat dairies, and improving kid survival rates.
