 The dairy industry is the largest of all agricultural enterprises in New
York. It also ranks third in the nation in the production of milk. Many students who choose the
Animal
Science - Dairy A.A.S. Curriculum at Morrisville State College, seek employment in the dairy
industry, work at their family farms, join the BT Dairy Management program
offered at Morrisville State College, or transfer to a Land
Grant University or other 4-year campuses after completing their degree. |
