Professor Robert E. Johnson retired from the Animal Industries Department of the University of Connecticut on November 1, 1969, completing 46 years of service.

Professor Johnson received his B.S. degree from the Connecticut Agricultural College in 1922, and his M.S. degree from Iowa State College in 1923. He joined the staff of the Storrs Agricultural Experiment Station in 1923 as an assistant dairy husbandman and assistant professor of diary husbandry. His early work was in cooperation with G. C. White and L. F. Rettger. It was some of the pioneering work in understanding Brucellosis and its control. Later he was involved in a series of long-term experiments with corn silage feeding investigations. In the 1930's he resumed his graduate studies at Iowa State College in animal breeding under J. L. Lush.

More recently, he has been involved as a cooperator in mastitis, milking machine, and nutrition research at the Storrs Agricultural Experiment Station.
