Advocates for Science sought
We appreciate the people who have replied to the invitation from the FASS Science Policy Committee (SPC) to join in our advocacy for science. Just a reminder the SPC is looking for animal scientists with an interest in public policy to become volunteer members of the committee. We seek to assure that the members of the committee represent a diversity of species, disciplinary expertise, and food animal products/processing. The SPC meets and communicates primarily by conference call and e-mail. Committee appointments are for three years with an option to renew for a second term. You can learn more about the SPC and its work by visiting
https://www.fass.org/Science-Policy
If you have additional questions please contact:
If are interested in becoming a member of the SPC and an advocate for agricultural research please send a current CV and letter of interest to

Dairy industry begins plotting path forward
U.S. dairy industry leaders said the sector continues to focus on the immediate needs of domestic consumers and producers due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the discombobulation of the supply chain and resulting demand and consumer behavior changes will need to be analyzed before the industry is able to fully understand how to plot a path forward.

Martha Kavanagh, a spokesperson for Glanbia, told the news outlet that the project's budget hasn't been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, although she did say "some delays" occurred at the site in the St. Johns, Mich., industrial park. "It's on time and on plan, is what I'm told," Kavanagh said.

NASEM Nutrient Requirements
of Dairy Cows
June 1-4, 2021
Eaglewood Resort & Spa
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) anticipates the 2021 release the 8th revised edition of the "Nutrient Requirements of Dairy Cattle", the world's most highly cited reference on dairy cattle feeding.
The 40th Discover Conference will focus on the scientific advancements in dairy cattle feeding used in revising the 2001 edition. NASEM subcommittee members will address the substantive changes in the nutrient requirements and the conceptual approaches used to make those changes. They will report on areas with significant knowledge gaps that still prevent more accurate prediction of the nutrient requirements. We will emphasize the interactive spirit of Discover conferences with structured small group discussions woven into the program, including focused discussions with the speakers. The program will bridge from the fundamental science to applied dairy cattle feeding.
Conference Topics Include:
- Feed Intake, Fats, Carbohydrates and Energy
- Proteins and Amino Acids
- Minerals, Vitamins and Water
- Dry Cows, Calves and Replacement Heifers
- Application of the New Requirements
