NDB
BROOKFIELD, Wis. The
36 dairy farmers serving on the
National Dairy Promotion and
Research Board looked at milk
production based on regional rep
resentation of the country during
their Sept. 22-23 business
meeting.
As part of the order establishing
the National Dairy Board, the
board must review the relationship
of milk production to National
Dairy Board representation at
least every five years. Because of
a shift in milk production, the
board voted to recommend to U.S.
Secretary of Agriculture Mike
Espy that representation from
Region 8 (Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama, Tennessee and Ken
tucky) includes one less member
while Region 4 (New Mexico,
Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas and
Texas) gains one member. Cur
rently, both regions have two
dairy farmer board members each.
