Progress 09/15/05 to 09/14/07
Outputs OUTPUTS: The mission of the Babcock Institute is to link the dairy industry of the US to dairy industries around the world in order to foster market development, address the challenges of globalization and improve quality of life. We do this through: 1) world market and dairy trade analysis, 2) research collaboration and scientific exchange, and 3) education and training programs. The Institute's research on world market and trade analysis is based on the work of Babcock director for international dairy trade and policy studies E.V. Jesse, agribusiness economist W.D. Dobson, and subgrant recipients. Recent research published by Jesse and Dobson separate reviews the 2006 and 2007 situation and outlook of US dairy trade. In addition, Jesse, Dobson and a multidisciplinary team of dairy experts visited Ireland, India, Poland and Uganda for Babcock country/regional studies. The 2007 Ireland study describes different facets of Ireland's dairy industry, discusses key elements of the
competitive environment, and provides implications for the U.S. and world dairy industries. The results of these studies were published, distributed to legislators and policymakers, and posted on the Institute website. The Institute's international dairy production-related research resulted may be classified into two categories: 1) Research intended to capitalize on existing international expertise to strengthen the domestic industry (e.g. Dr. Thomas' continuing work to bring European experts to the US to train the fledgling dairy sheep industry and Dr. Rankin's work with Mexican scientists to improve US-made Hispanic cheese flavors), and 2) Research intended to build new dairy technologies that are applicable in the domestic industry, as well as emerging dairy industries around the world (e.g. Dr. Gianola's partnership with Norway on statistical procedures for genetic analysis of diseases and fertility in dairy cattle, and work of Dr. Khatib with Israel on the validation of genes
controlling economically important traits in dairy cattle). The Institute works to strengthen ties with the Mexican and Chinese dairy industries for the purpose of market development. Efforts include faculty and student exchange programs, research collaborations, product exhibitions for US companies, and courses. The Institute has achieved great success in reaching out to international and domestic producer groups with (1) multilingual technical publications and CDs, (2) multilingual electronic outreach through the Web, and (3) international short courses and consulting services. Institute staff members continue to work closely with county extension agents to create practical training materials for Spanish-speaking dairy employees, including calf care and herdsmanship modules for the Dairy Worker Training series. Babcock also produces the Dairy Update series, which brings UW research findings to the agricultural community.

TARGET AUDIENCES: The Babcock Institute's programs provide help to Wisconsin and US farmers by developing educational materials and providing international experts for local conferences and events. Spanish-speaking farm workers on Wisconsin and US farms benefit from educational training programs and materials developed in English and Spanish in partnership with University of Wisconsin Extension. The Babcock Institute designs and implements programs that help leaders, educators, and producers from around the world identify Wisconsin and the United States as centers of dairy excellence. The Babcock Institute draws upon the great depth and breadth of expertise in Wisconsin's dairy industry. The extensive list of dairy-related programs, institutes, and centers at the University of Wisconsin strengthen Wisconsin's reputation as "America's Dairyland." Wisconsin dairy-related companies benefit from international buyers' groups that Babcock brings to Wisconsin for training programs, and from
the relationships developed with individuals in these groups. Wisconsin Department of Commerce and Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection work closely with the Babcock Institute to benefit US dairy-related businesses by helping develop programs that create export markets for US products. The Babcock Institute spreads the message to international dairy farmers, veterinarians, agribusiness professionals, government officials, university professors, and others that Wisconsin/the US is the best place in the world to come for dairy cattle, semen, embryos, milking equipment, feed, feed additives, etc. and for dairy-related expertise.
Impacts Babcock Institute programs are scientific, educational and commercial. By working with scientists and domestic and foreign dairy industry groups, the Institute links domestic and international partners in a synergistic way, producing mutually beneficial results. To date, the Institute has provided short courses to nearly 4300 dairy leaders from 67 countries (including the US), its publications have been distributed to more than 100 countries, and its free multilingual educational materials have been accessed from our website by users in more than 175 countries. In 2004, the Institute established the Sino-U.S. Dairy Center with Beijing's China Agricultural University. In 2005, 2006, and 2007 the Institute provided US dairy-related businesses the opportunity to showcase their products at seminars and exhibitions in Beijing and Harbin, China, organized by the Sino-U.S. Dairy Center.

We do this through: 1) world market and dairy trade analysis, 2) research collaboration and scientific exchange, and 3) education and training programs. The Institute's research on world market and trade analysis is based on the work of Babcock director for international dairy trade and policy studies E.V. Jesse, agribusiness economist W.D. Dobson, and subgrant recipients. Recent research published by Jesse and Dobson reviews the current situation and outlook of US dairy trade, and another Dobson paper provides an overview of the implications to the US dairy industry of developments in world dairy markets from 2002-2006. In addition, Jesse, Dobson and a multidisciplinary team of dairy experts visited India for Babcock's third country/regional study.
India offers a unique and challenging case study in dairying as it holds the world's second largest population and is the world's largest milk-producing country. The results of these studies were published, distributed to legislators and policymakers, and posted on the Institute website. Work by subgrant recipients includes Dr. Gould's development of a website-based system that makes US dairy product trade data available for view or download. The Institute's international dairy production-related research resulted may be classified into two categories: 1) Research intended to capitalize on existing international expertise to strengthen the domestic industry (e.g. Dr. Thomas' continuing work with European experts on dairy sheep research and Drs. Comb and Albrecht's adaptation of New Zealand kura clover to withstand winters in Wisconsin pastures), and 2) Research intended to build new dairy technologies that are applicable in the domestic industry, as well as emerging dairy industries
around the world (e.g. Dr. Monson's work with production of gender-controlled [female] in vitro-produced Holstein embryos for cryopreservation and transfer into dairy cattle in Mexico, and work of Dr. Khatib on the association of the bovine oxidized LDL receptor1 [OLRI] with milk fat percentage in dairy cattle). The Institute works to strengthen ties with the Mexican and Chinese dairy industries for the purpose of market development. Efforts include faculty and student exchange programs, research collaborations, product exhibitions for US companies, and courses. The Institute has achieved great success in reaching out to international and domestic producer groups with (1) multilingual technical publications and CDs, (2) multilingual electronic outreach through the Web, and (3) international short courses and consulting services.
