Please join us at the 27th Western Canadian Dairy Seminar, where you can gather the latest information in dairy production and technology advances. This seminar is designed for people who want to improve their knowledge and decision-making abilities in dairy production and management.

Comments from experts in the dairy industry:

Dr. Todd Duffield, Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph

“The Western Canadian Dairy Symposium is one of the best dairy CE programs in North America and certainly the highlight for Canada. It annually attracts high quality international speakers who have the opportunity to speak to a huge enthusiastic crowd of dairy advisors, veterinarians, and producers. Without a doubt it is the best dairy meeting that I have attended.”

Dr. Mike Hutjens, University of Illinois

       “The Western Canadian Dairy Seminar continues to be one of "the" premier dairy conferences with a unique blend of Canadian, U.S., and international speakers, a variety of applied topics, and workshops for indepth discussions.  The broad group of attendees and open time periods allow for one-on-one exchanges between all participants.  It is an impressive and valuable conference for speakers and delegates!"


Dr. Mark Varner, University of Maryland

       “The WCDS sticks out in my mind as having the best speakers on dairy production. No other conference has better speakers with the latest in practical research findings. Even though the conference has 'Western Canada' in the name, it's really the top dairy conference in all of North America.”

Dr. Jim Spain, University of Missouri-Columbia

       “The Western Canadian Dairy Seminar is one of the top two or three dairy meetings convened in all of North America. Beyond the program is the great environment of discussion with speaker panels and the participants who are leading producers and allied industry representatives. In addition to the opportunity for great industry networking this is a truly fabulous educational activity that is well worth the money and time invested by the participants!”
