Abstract

Over the last three years, a training course on Milk Quality Management was developed for dairy farmers. In three years, over forty 20-hour sessions have been held. Clearly, the demand from dairy farmers for such sessions is on the rise, so we decided to train new instructors and make high quality educational material available to them.
 Although dairy farmers can use the educational material at home, we recommend that groups be formed for a 15- to 25-hour training course, which provides participants with a unique opportunity to discuss the topics that most concern them.
 During the winter of 1996-1997 over 80 groups averaging 20 dairy farmers have been trained in Quebec. In addition, a number of individuals and institutions have used this material.
 A survey has been done on the impacts of this training on milking practices and management.
