Announcement on WVU, cows slated for Tuesday

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — An announcement regarding West Virginia University’s Davis College of Agriculture and cows will be made Tuesday.

The decision will come after an external review of the college’s seven farms, which sits on 3,000 acres, and some improvements that could be made.

The college’s interim dean Ken Blemings said an internal group is taking that information to formulate a plan for the future.

“This internal group is working toward developing a forward-looking strategy for the farm system that prioritizes resources to support their research and teaching missions,” he said.

Blemings stressed there are no current plans to sell any part of the WVU ag education system.

Faculty and staff will first hear the news during a closed meeting.
