Frances E. Osborne Kellogg Dairy Ctr. (KDC)
Description:
The Kellogg Dairy Center (KDC) is a modern free-stall facility capable of accommodating over 100 milking animals (Holstein and Jersey). The building is equipped with a Voluntary Milking System (VMS; robotic milking system) and robotic feeders. With robotic milkers, the cows decide when they want to be milked (2 to 6 times per day). There is an observation area where the public can watch milking in progress. In addition, the KDC contains a classroom, laboratory, surgical unit, and recovery room. Currently closed to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
