Dairy Together: A movement to rebuild a viable dairy economy for family farmers and rural communities.
The time is now.
Join the Wisconsin Farmers Union in our work to rebuild a viable dairy economy for family farmers and rural communities!
In recent years, dairy news headlines have been dismal as volatile milk prices and a flood of milk on the market have contributed to a downward spiral in dairy prices and the quality of life for dairy farmers across the country.
Over the last 10 years, the USDA recorded the loss of roughly 17,000 dairy herds, cutting the total number of U.S herds by nearly one third.
Dairy farmers across the country are mobilizing in response to the current dairy price crisis. We are working on short- and long-term solutions at the federal and state policy levels, as well as supporting farmers’ engagement in their dairy cooperatives and the dairy check-off to find solutions in the marketplace.
We need to enact bold solutions to halt the loss of family dairy farms.
