Martin also told the group that despite the slow farm economy and fewer cows to breed, Atlantic did show a profit in 1984. In conclusion, he looked to the future of ABC and the dairy industry, citing that as cow numbers and production change, and as the dairy industry changes, there will be changes in the AI Industry.
