FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 19, 2008

URBANA – Taking a five- to ten- minute online survey will help University of Illinois Extension make informed decisions about livestock grazing education and programming, according to U of I Extension Assessment and Planning Director Pennie Crinion.

"U of I Extension staff has focused on providing livestock grazing education for producers through meetings, workshops, field demonstrations, websites and publications for the last few years," said Crinion. "We want to determine if the content of these educational efforts is meeting the needs of livestock producers and to identify additional educational needs."

Crinion said the survey only takes a short time to complete online and is appropriate for any livestock producers (beef, dairy, sheep, goats, poultry, horses, etc.) who have participated in Extension livestock grazing workshops or other activities.
