Weekly Meeting: Past, Present & Future of the William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute

Since its creation in 1951, the principal function of the William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute is the economic improvement of agricultural operations through research, education, and demonstration. The staff at Miner Institute, located outside of Chazy, NY, conducts research programs that apply basic science to contemporary problems confronting the dairy and equine industries with a special focus on crop-animal-environment interface, milk analysis as a herd management tool, cow comfort and behavior, and equine reproductive management.

Dr. Rick Grant, President of Miner Institute, will discuss with the club the past, present and future for the research facility.
