sales. He will be a representative
of Mid East while at the sales.
“We couldn’t have found a bet
ter person for the job; Denny is a
perfect fit,” said Richard Edwards,
President of the Board of Direc
tors. Remsburg’s appointment
comes after a nationwide search.
“Fortunately for us we had a gent
leman right at our backdoor” who
was exceptionally qualified for the
job.
Approximately half the dairy
herds in Mid East’s membership
area are on test currently. The
numbers fluctuate, but the lab runs
about fifty to fifty-five thousand
samples per month. Eight hundred
fifty-five herds, or around sixty
eight or sixty-nine thousand cows
are enrolled, according to the last
runs.
One of Denny’s goals
is to try to include more
herds in the program. A
good educational prog
ram is a good sales
pitch, and Remsburg
will be travelling some
in the membership area
in an effort to make peo
ple aware of what he
sees as the benefits of
being on test. “At this
time, you need all the
management tools you
can have. If you’re
going to be an efficient
manager, you need good
information at a reason
able cost As far as I’m
concerned, this is good
information.’’ He will
also make an effort to
ensure the quality of the
testing process is up to
national standards.
DHIC is a non-profit
service organization.
“We try to cover the
costs of keeping the
doors open,” explains
Mr. Edwards, “We’re
here to provide a service
for the dairy farmers.
We’re not in it to make a
profit.” Its function is
two-fold; it is both a
laboratory for the actual
testing of samples from
the farm, and an umbrel
la organization for the
affiliate members. Sam
ples processed at the lab
in Hagerstown are sent
to cither Raleigh or Pro
vo, where the herd sum
mary information is
recorded, then for
warded to the farmer.
Officers of Mid-East
DHIC are: Richard
Edwards of the Eastern
Shore, President, Joy
Crothers representing
Cecil and Harford coun
ties, Vice President,
Thomas D. Remsburg
for Frederick and Mont
gomery counties, Trea
surer, and A. Dennis
“Denny” Remsburg,
Secretary to the Board.
The Board of Directors
includes ten members
from the member reg
ions. There are also two
representatives from the
Extension Service: Dr.
J. Lee Majeskie from
University of Maryland,
and Dr. George F.W.
Haenlein from Univer
sity of Delaware.
Denny Remsburg
resides in Jefferson, MD
with his wife Marsha.
The couple have two
children, Darren, 17,
and Brenna, 15.
