Meetings to Speak to Regional Dairy Markets, Profitability



With less than two weeks to register, the Center for Dairy Excellence will host three December PA Dairy Industry Professional Roundtable Meetings. Dairy markets suggest 2016 will require producers and the professionals who serve them to be strategic in building budgets and achieving profitability.

The center would like to invite industry professionals to attend a meeting near them, where 2016 profitability forecasts will be shared. In addition, roundtable discussions on resources, tools, and best practice sharing for maximizing success in 2016 will provide attendees with insights into serving dairy clients.

"This is an important opportunity for dairy industry stakeholders to network with and learn from other professionals serving dairy producers," Alan Zepp, risk management program manager with the center said. "We can collaborate to better extend resources which will benefit producers' as they prepare for the New Year.
