Organic Dairy Farming
ISBN #0-9637982-3-5
$19.95

This practical collection of articles by twenty authors, including vegetarians, farmers, researchers and specialists, challenges the reader to begin to see that organic management is more than a single method or procedure. A complete rewriting of the original 1995 edition, it includes chapters on dairy nutrition, cow and calf management, organic health care, stress and handling, farm milk quality, farm biosecurity, animal breeding for organic production, soil health, organic cropping systems, pasture management, organic certification, and marketing. While coverage of biodynamic practices is limited, this volume, like its predecessor, will prove to be a valuable addition to your reference shelf.
