I wanted to share a preview that the successful Dairy on the Air podcast, which Midwest Dairy started more than three years ago, is being re-launched next week on July 16 as a federation-wide tool, now called Your Dairy Checkoff Podcast.

The 2021 Dairy Experience Forum registration is LIVE! We are pleased to see an event that had it’s beginnings with Midwest Dairy now become a UDIA Federation event.

Please see the announcement below highlighting the appointment of Martha Scott Pointdexter as Chief Operating Officer.

Happy National Dairy Month. This is such an exciting time of year when checkoff staff collaborates with dairy farmers and partners across the region to creatively share how dairy is good for people, communities and the planet.

The tools below will help you better understand the work of the Net Zero Initiative and how it puts us on the path to meeting our 2050 Environmental Sustainability Commitment.

The Indy 500 winner did dairy proud by having two milk toasts – the second with strawberry milk to match his team colors. I’m looking forward to sharing more about the UN Food Systems Summit at summer division board meetings.

Please review the five checkoff stories in Progressive Dairy and the NBC news story on the GENYOUth report on the impact of the pandemic on youth.

Midwest Dairy has been able to work with school districts in the past to pilot bulk milk dispensers so we chose the shelf stable school milk pilot as the opportunity for greatest growth.

Three updates from DMI on check off partnerships and research.
