Bob Hageman, president of the Board of Directors of World Dairy Expo, recently announced that World Dairy Expo 2021 (the 54th edition) will go on as scheduled Sept. 28 to Oct. 2, 2021. The event is scheduled for Expo’s historic home, the Alliant Energy Center near Madison. “This announcement comes after thorough consideration of the pandemic issues,” Hageman says.
Now comes the question – will the dairy cattle and crowds return to the Expo after a year of it not being held, knowing the pandemic may still be in force during Expo time?
