The University of Wisconsin-River Falls and Burnett Dairy Cooperative announced a new partnership that will strengthen Wisconsin’s dairy industry through collaboration in education, research and product development. As of Nov. 1, milk produced at the university’s Mann Valley Farm is being shipped to Burnett Dairy Cooperative for processing.  

This partnership also ensures continued support for the university’s on-campus Falcon Creamery, which will maintain access to milk from Mann Valley Farm for its student-led dairy production and learning initiatives. 

“Partnerships with businesses are an important part of the professional development of our students,” said Michael Orth, dean of UWRF’s College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Science. “We believe many unique opportunities will come from this new relationship with the Burnett Dairy Co-op.”
