Annual Meeting Address
More than 800 dairy farmers, including members of the ADA Mideast Board, and industry representatives traveled to New Orleans earlier this month to attend the joint annual meeting of the United Dairy Industry Association, National Dairy Promotion and Research Board and National Milk Producers Federation.
During the meeting, DMI CEO Tom Gallagher stressed that to thrive in the future, industrywide unity and leadership will become more important than ever. This is crucial as anti-animal agriculture groups pose a growing threat to the dairy industry by working to eliminate the checkoff, the last line of defense between farmers and consumers.
