Dairy Policy Discussed at AFBF Annual Meeting
The American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) held its 91st annual meeting in Seattle last month. The delegates debated resolutions and policy amendments, and dairy policy was debated for nearly an hour.
The Farm Bureau passed a resolution stating the organization’s opposition to mandatory supply management. AFBF policy continues to support the CWT program. Delegates removed a resolution supporting lower somatic cell counts in fluid milk. Lastly, AFBF reiterated support for more dairy products to be consumed through the Women, Infant, and Children (WIC) nutrition program.
