Description: In order to solicit farmer input regarding University research and extension programs, PATS asked a series of questions about the research and extension programs at the University of Wisconsin in the 1999 Wisconsin Dairy Farm Poll. Respondents were presented with a list of possible research topics and asked whether they saw these issues as a low or high priority for the University of Wisconsin. For the most part, the research priorities identified by respondents were consistent with issues that affected small and medium-sized operations rather than those that were only relevant to large-scale or expanding operations.
