At the DQA Center we provide programs designed to improve the quality of milk and dairy beef. These programs are implemented at the production site with the veterinarian or dairy consultant of the producer's choice. Participation in our programs helps producers achieve a higher level of quality, while simultaneously reducing costs and improving the bottom line.

The Milk & Dairy Beef Quality Assurance (DQA) Program is designed to produce and distribute "quality" educational material in six major areas. They are:

  • Milk Safety and Quality
  • Environmental Stewardship
  • Dairy Animal Care
  • Personnel Management
  • Dairy Beef Quality
  • Pathogen Management

The DQA Center has many resources that will assist both the producer and veterinarian to reach the goals of the DQA Program. We invite you to visit our home page often to see the changes and enhancements we are making to the program.
