The University of Wisconsin – River Falls, home to one of the largest undergraduate dairy science programs in the U.S., has announced a collaboration with China Agricultural University (CAU), located in Beijing. Both institutions are recognized as among the finest in their respective countries for quality and strength of programming in dairy science and related fields.

The new partnership is an outgrowth of meetings held in China in June as part of a Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) visit to promote Wisconsin’s rich dairy industry and related resources.

Business and industry leaders from last summer’s visit also welcomed more than 40 delegates from China who had traveled to Madison to attend the World Dairy Expo. PD
