THIS WEEK ON U.S. FARM REPORT
EPISODE # 2048
NOVEMBER 10-11, 2012
JOHN’S OPEN:
Hello and welcome to U.S. Farm Report, I’m John Phipps. I had the privilege to spend a day with some of America’s best dairy farmers at the Elite Producer Business Conference held by our sister publication, Dairy Today. I left with an even higher respect for the people in the U.S. dairy industry. Despite a litany of formidable challenges - feed costs, milk consumption, immigration, dairy policy, and more - I heard no whining, blaming or demanding. Just a sober, realistic appraisal of a harsh reality. I frankly don't know how this sector will weather the storm of problems it faces, but I do know if anyone can do it, it will be the men and women I met that day. I'll bet on them any day.
