In his DairyLine broadcast to producers last week, Jerry Slominski, IDFA senior vice president, discussed the positive progress the industry is making in the lead-up to the next farm bill. "I'm pleased to report that, for the first time in a long time, processors and producers are in agreement on much of what is needed to strengthen our industry in the years to come," he said. He noted, however, that IDFA does not support milk supply control, because "this is not the time to discourage investment in the dairy industry."

DairyLine is heard on more than 90 radio stations, and IDFA regularly provides a processor perspective on key industry issues. Read the text of the broadcast here.
