Dairy farmers and their cooperatives face an important vote on milk pricing before the end of the year. USDA recently proposed the most important changes in two decades to how minimum milk prices will be set under Federal Milk Marketing Orders (FMMOs). These changes will affect milk prices and dairy farm profitability for years to come. Dairy farmers and their cooperatives will vote on whether to accept the proposed changes once they are finalized in November or to eliminate pricing under FMMOs in their region altogether—there’s no option to continue with the pricing arrangements we have now. PDP joined forces with industry leaders to better understand what these changes mean for all of the stakeholders. Did you miss the workshop? No worries - we have you covered. The recordings from the workshop provide valuable insights about what changes USDA is proposing, why they are proposing them and the likely future impacts on farm milk prices. Dairy economists from UW-Madison and Cornell University with more than 100 collective years of experience analyzing dairy markets policy share insights about the proposed changes and their impacts in different regions of the US. A panel of highly respected industry experts representing producers and processors from around the country shared their perspectives on the proposed changes and how they will shape the industry going forward.

The Cornell University Future-Leaders-In-Produce Foundational Excellence Program is crafted specifically for produce industry executives with less than 5 years’ experience to fill a void of educational opportunities for this group of produce professionals. Join us on Tuesday, December 10th as Professor Karan Girotra, Cornell University, presents "The AI Transformation." Recent advances in artificial intelligence enable machines to perform, support, and enhance new classes of cognitive work, a category expansion in automation capabilities not seen since the invention of digital computers. These advances have the potential to usher in a business transformation akin to that of other general-purpose inventions such as the steam engine. We can expect these technologies to: radically increase individual, managerial and team productivity; enable disruptive new business models; fundamentally redistribute economic power; and reorganize work and society. In this session, Professor Girotra (co-founder of Cornell Tech, the university’s $2 billion flagship technology and business initiative) will illustrate how we are at the very start of this transformation and shine a light on the long, fruitful road ahead.
