The State of the Milkshed
DFA markets
and processes milk and dairy products on behalf of its member-owners across
the United States. DFA’s member-owners marketed 61.9
billion pounds of milk (34 percent of the U.S. milk supply) in the year
2007.
DFA membership and milkshed is divided into seven geographic marketing
areas. These areas are structured for grassroots representation of farmers
and their local markets. DFA’s
footprint extends into every state and moves into many international
markets. Market opportunities for
member milk include DFA's own family of value-added manufacturing plants
along with DFA's expanded joint venture network of the some of the nation's
most well-respected regional and national fluid milk bottlers and dairy
product manufacturers.
