In which department should forages be taught?

Forages as a discipline and forage workers in general are declining nationwide. Why is this? Could it be the department in which forage courses are taught? This paper will take a brief look at the history of forage/livestock grazing research, who currently teaches a forage course and where forages are currently taught at various land grant institutions. Finally, the question and a potential answer is provided regarding where might the forage discipline be taught to increase their exposure to undergraduate students.
