Welcome to Dairy Facilities Engineering
part of the PRO-DAIRY Program at Cornell University

This site offers dairy producers valuable research and time-proven methods to improve their dairy operation.

The goal is to maximize dairy profits through cow comfort: the more comfortable the cows, the more they will produce.

How can you get more comfortable cows? There are various methods, including ventilation, heat stress relief, facility design, stall design, and a proper flooring surface. Visit the Presentations, Drawings, Papers, and Photos sections of this site for further explanation of these methods, and if you have questions about the content, contact Curt Gooch.
