Dairy Standard Agency

rBST is a hormone that is injected into dairy cows to make them produce more milk. In the recent past rBST has been at the receiving end of a lot of negative attention. Is this justified?

During the webinar from The Dairy Standard Agency, the following will be discussed:
• What is BST and rBST?
• What is the difference between BST and rBST?
• How does it work?
• Is it dangerous?
• Why do so many milk buyers ban the use of rBST on dairy farms?
• The pros and cons of rBST

Please note: The speaker presenting this webinar will be neither FOR nor AGAINST the use of rBST. Since the use of hormones can be a controversial issue, the discussion will be presented from a neutral standpoint, with the aim of educating on the facts of this topic.
