On Tuesday, October 13, 2026, from noon–1:00pm ET, the Penn State Center for Agricultural and Shale Law will conduct the latest installment in its Quarterly Dairy Legal Webinar Series.  Each quarter’s free one-hour webinar covers the legal and regulatory developments in the U.S. dairy industry from the preceding quarter and includes an in-depth look at a single focus topic of law, regulation, or government policy of interest to dairy professionals of all kinds.  

This quarter’s focus topic: Landowner Liability Statutes for Dairy 

Dairy farms have increasingly opened their properties to members of the public for agritourism activities, including hayrides, animal interactions, and farm tours. This quarter’s focus topic will examine potential landowner liability protections for these activities, with particular attention to Pennsylvania’s Agritourism Activity Act and the Recreational Use of Land and Water Act (RULWA), and the circumstances under which these statutes may protect dairy farmers from liability for injuries to visitors.
