Wisconsin Farm Bureau votes to “consider” possible dairy supply management


Wisconsin Farm Bureau members are not pushing for dairy supply management, but they are willing to consider it. During the final day of their annual meeting on Monday, delegates of the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation voted to change their language regarding supply management. The change gives the WFBF board of directors and membership more flexibility in this area, providing an avenue to explore widespread supply management.

Although the initial resolution pushed for adoption of supply management, the passed resolution simply gives members the ability to “consider” it. According to Paul Zimmerman with WFBF, the delegates adopted language that provides the organization the opportunity to consider what kind of policy they want to have for the dairy industry going forward.

The resolution calling for the development of a supply management system was amended to only “consider” it.
