instruction to the needs of the dairy
farmers who have attended. To
date, 400 dairy farmers have taken
the course, and from their experi
ence, the course material has been
revised and expanded to fill the
needs of almost any dairy farmer in
the state.
Rather than lecture, the presen
ters or facilitators of Dairy MAP
courses use examples of dairy farm
operations for the attendees to
match with their own operations.

The farmers write their btiancss
and personal otqcclivcs and fipnu
lalc goals that arc specific, milMlur
ablc, attainable, relevant andjsne
ly. Topics cover
trols, staffing, directing, and
organizing. A lot of the educational
process comes from the inter
change among the dairy famfOrs in
the workshop.
Many farmers going into the
classes thought they were good
managers but found that there were
many things they could do belter
after they became aware of diffe
rent possibilities. Decision
making, based on objective nthcr
than subjective assumptions, was
anc of the great benefits cited by
farmers who had taken the course.
The ad hoc committee decided
to support the Dairy-MAP prog
ram as the method to help dairy far
mers with management skills. An
advisory committee of half
industry people and half-producers
was formed to work with Penn
State personnel to further adapt the
course to farmer’s needs, hire per
sons to run the program, and prom
ote the program to farmers with the
support of the dairy industry stake
holders. A finance committee was
also formed to raise funds to run
the program.
All this effort comes from a real
concern that the business climate
for dairy farming in Pennsylvania
has become and may continue to be
of such a nature that the industry
might not survive the economic
pressures. If dairy farmers can’t
make a living, Pennsylvania’s total
agriculture industry is in trouble.
And the supporting jobs that make
up 20 percent of Pennsylvania’s
economy arc also in jeopardy.
