The MMPA team who operates manufacturing operations in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio on behalf of its member-owners, applied the same philosophy in forging a strategic alliance with an India-based cooperative, Amul." - Sudeep Jain, MMPA Director of Quality Read more in the latest #MilkMessenger

Last week we were honored to host 49 young dairy farmer leaders and co-op coordinators representing 17 states and ten member cooperatives at our #YoungCooperators Dairy Policy & Legislative Forum in Washington, D.C. The annual event included discussions about political engagement and policy issues, along with training on how to be an effective advocate and spokesperson for dairy. YCs then headed to Capitol Hill to speak with members of Congress and their staffs about the 2024 Farm Bill, the Dairy PRIDE Act and trade issues. We’re grateful for the engagement from year’s outstanding group of Young Cooperators, and for the generous support of the Farm Credit Council, whose support made the event possible.

May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! What does dairy mean to people of AAPI heritage? How can we continue to support and celebrate people of AAPI heritage in the dairy community? Throughout the month, IDFA is celebrating the diversity of AAPI Heritage and is excited to elevate the perspectives of several incredible AAPI members of the dairy industry. Sudeep Jain, director of quality with Michigan Milk Producers Association, shares what heritage means to him and talks about how dairy can continue innovating to bring products to AAPI consumers while introducing new flavors and products to other consumers as well. #AAPIHeritageMonth #AAPI #dairy
