Cows at the Miner Institute in New York eat a mixed feed, balanced to meet their dietary needs. A new $10 million grant from the USDA, led by Nichole Price with Bigelow Laboratory and Colby College, will fund research into developing new algal-based supplements that could be added to feed to improve milk production and environmental sustainability.
