CHICO STATE ORGANIC DAIRY PROGRAM
DAIRY MANAGEMENT TEAM
In 2006, the University Farm transitioned a portion of the University Farm for the purpose of developing a program in organic, pasture-based dairy production and management. This particular production paradigm was developed to bring a more sustainable dairy model into the curriculum, and also serves to expose our students to organic methodology. The unit is run by the Dairy Management Team (DMT), which includes 10-12 student employees who are charged with the day-to-day operations of the unit. To learn more about our program click here.

TRACY, Calif. – December 18, 2024 – One in eight Californians currently struggle with food insecurity, with milk being one of the most requested but least donated items at food banks. This fall, the California Milk Advisory Board (CMAB) worked with student dairy advocates from California State University, Chico (Chico State), California State University, Fresno (Fresno State), California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly), and Modesto Junior College (MJC) to address this deficit by hosting the second annual Real California Milk Intercollegiate Give-A-Gallon Challenge.
