Report: Vilsack to head U.S. Dairy Export Council

According to a report from Agri-Pulse, U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack will become president and CEO of the U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC) when he leaves office this month.

Agri-Pulse cites a source familiar with Vilsack’s plans. A spokeswoman for Dairy Management Inc., which founded the export council, told Brownfield she could not confirm or deny that Vilsack would take over the council. A USDA spokeswoman told Agri-Pulse she could not confirm Vilsack’s plans.

Tom Suber, USDEC president since its inception 21 years ago, retired at the end of the year. USDEC is funded by checkoff revenue to track and promote trade in American dairy products and ingredients.
