  Multi‐county dairy extension agent Russ Giesy retired in August from UF/IFAS Extension after 21 years of service. Russ served the dairy industry in any way he could with a focus on farm business financial analyses (DBAP) and cost‐benefit analyses of nutrient management systems. He was recognized for his service to the Florida dairy industry by industry leaders at the Florida Dairy Business Conference in Ocala on September 8. Russ has accepted a position as classifier with the Brown Swiss Association. He and his wife Joan plan to stay in Leesburg, Florida. Dr. Joan Dusky, associate dean for Extension, said that the University of Florida plans to fill the now vacant position. UF will work with the Florida dairy industry to define the job description and the location of the new dairy agent. We wish Russ good luck in his new endeavors.
