This document summarizes a research project on climate change mitigation and adaptation in dairy production systems in the Great Lakes region. It involves researchers from 13 institutions studying ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt dairy farming to climate change through changes to cow feeding, manure management, and crop production. They are evaluating these practices using models and field trials to identify the most effective strategies to lower emissions and increase farm profitability. A key outcome is education of students through the transformation of a Milwaukee high school into one focused on agricultural sciences.
