The Holstein Dilemma

“The Holstein Dilemma” is an investigative documentary delving into the importance of maintaining the diverse genetic characteristics found in heritage breed livestock and crops. Compelling data and discussions on this looming crisis reveal scientific evidence of a looming threat to food safety. The film also reveals several grassroots conservation efforts to preserve and protect genetic biodiversity and the security of our global food supply.
