UW-P awards Dairy Innovation Hub faculty research fellowships

University of Wisconsin-Platteville officials recently awarded five faculty fellowships to help increase dairy-related research through the Dairy Innovation Hub. The projects funded will include a study of automated rotational grazing, evaluation of nitrogen availability from manure and development of disease management strategies against root rot in alfalfa plants, among other projects. The hub is supported by a $7.8 million annual investment by the State of Wisconsin, and this marks the third round of Dairy Innovation Hub faculty fellowships.
