CDA & CSU AgNext putting on Methane Day on June 13th

The Colorado Department of Agriculture and Colorado State University's AgNext invite ranchers, dairymen, livestock producers, and agricultural groups to Methane Day, a workshop to discuss opportunities and barriers of reducing methane emissions. Methane Day’s goal is to bring together agricultural voices, learn about current technologies, and discuss hurdles to methane reduction.

Methane Day will take place on June 13 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Attendance at the Methane Day is free. Using the event registration page, producers can also register only for the free Methane Day.
