It's a serious business climate – with much at stake – for many in the dairy foods industry, notes Connie Tipton, IDFA president and CEO, in her latest Cheese Market News column.
"For dairy, there is broad agreement that our safety net programs for farms are flawed and must be replaced, but consensus on the direction forward remains elusive," Tipton explained. "For IDFA and its members, the policy direction of continued growth is the easy choice." She encourages everyone to get involved, express opinions and make a difference.
