Dr. Silvia Abel-Caines is a ruminant nutritionist who helps ensure cows are happy and healthy so that they can produce the most nutritious milk. Recently, Dr. Silvia had the opportunity to share her knowledge with an all-women dairy cooperative in Senegal. She found this experience to be incredibly exciting and rewarding. "Besides giving them the technical training on milk processing, I also told them what I have learned so far on the value of a good co-op with good marketing and good leadership."
