COVID-19 Impact on Dairy Farms in the US

A team of researchers from UC Davis, WSU, U Idaho and SD State have developed a set of surveys to better understand the impact of COVID-19 and the Coronavirus pandemic on US Dairy Farms.

WE NEED YOUR HELP distributing these surveys as widely and as quickly as possible and completing the appropriate survey as soon as possible. 

Results will allow us to identify critical areas for outreach activities with the objective of mitigating potential risks to dairy farmers’ and workers’ health, further labor disruptions, milk supply shortages, and economic risks to the sector. 

Whether or not one believes the novel coronavirus presents a significant health risk, it definitely presents a risk to businesses in the dairy industry.

 

There are 3 surveys.
