With turmoil brewing between Canada and the U.S. in ongoing trade talks, it is important to remember the foundation of each industry: dairy producers. Here, Progressive Dairyman takes a look at two young couples, one from Canada and one from the U.S., to find their commonalities as well as differences in their dairy environments.

The final piece of the puzzle was finding the right pasteurizer. New Jersey dairy farmer Peter Southway and his family were seeking one that could gently pasteurize their herd’s milk without degrading its integrity and do so with as little time and labor as possible.

In a tumultuous time for the dairy industry, strong dairy promoters are more important than ever. Dairy enthusiasts all over the U.S. have stepped up to the plate to fill this role, and a stand-out among them is the young and talented Riley DuBois.

It is routine for Mark Berning to ask all of his teenage employees to consider running for a dairy ambassador or dairy princess title.

There is no better time than National Dairy Month to celebrate and promote the dairy industry, and dairy groups are finding creative and festive ways to reach consumers in person and online.

In addition to photography, the FarmHer organization includes branded apparel, podcasts and a series aired on RFD-TV.
