National DHIA Eliminates
(Contlmwd Iran Page Al)
Second, it is known that indivi
dual producers may now change
affiliation at any time. According
to the transfer procedures adopted
by the national board:
• The individual producer shall
file, with the two affiliates
involved, a written intent-to
transfer.
• The original DHIA shall have a
60-day transition period to respond
to the notice of intent, after which
the producer, who has no action
pending in regards to payment or
rule violations, is free to transfer.
• The two DHIAs involved may,
by mutual consent, shorten or eli
minate the transition period.
• National DHIA would not
receive a notice of intent Howev
er. if either DHIA does not honor
this procedure or a mutually
accepted alternative, the DHIAs
involved should forward a com
plaint to the National DHIA.
• The initial Tiling of the intent
to-transfer date will be May 1,
1993, allowing a maximum transi
tion period ending July 1,1993, or
by mutual consent.

Sukup began his career in
DHIA as the supervisor for
Washington-Marshall DHIA in
Kansas in March 1973, where he
more than doubled his herds on
test in a ten year period. His con
cern over raising the production
level of his members led him to
implement programs which
resulted in his association increas
ing productivity 70% faster than
the state average.
Due to his support for the
National DHIA Verified Identifi
cation Program (VIP), every
member of the association
enrolled their grade heifers in the
program, resulting in Kansas’
record as the number one state in
VIP participation virtually every
year.
In 1983 Mr. Sukup became the
general manager of Kansas DHIA.
He heavily promoted protein test
ing. and his enthusiasm for the
SCC program increased participa
tion from 39% of the herds in
1983 to 92% in 1992.
Other programs David has been
instrumental in developing
include an electronic bulletin
