“Use your eyes to help us filter
through the options,” he said.
Stenholm emphasized that we
want no more dairy terminations,
heifer buy outs, etc. They are only
temporary solutions. The dairy
industry needs unity to survive.
He said his committee is awaiting
recommendations from National
Milk Producers Federation and
dairy industry leaders and is open
to all comments, ideas and
options. “The need for NMPF has
never been greater. The need for
our cooperatives to enhance dairy
returns to producers has never
been greater,” he concluded.
