The 2023 Dairy Insights Summit, presented by Professional Dairy Producers® (PDPW), will be held on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, at the Sheraton Hotel in Madison, Wisconsin. The summit will provide an opportunity for dairy farmers to hear firsthand from global dairy processors about the latest market trends and challenges, as well as how to increase market share in a competitive environment.

One of the key sessions at the summit will be a panel discussion titled “Writing the rules to the market-access game.” The panelists will include James McVitty, vice president of trade strategy, sustainability and stakeholder affairs for Fonterra; Martin Bates, president, global relations and marketing for Dairy Farmers of America; and Ryan Baraniuk, vice president of marketing for Arla Foods Canada. Chad Vincent, CEO of Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin, will facilitate the discussion.

The panelists will discuss the shifts in the dairy industry triggered by local, national and global trends, and what they mean for on-farm sustainability, consumer demands and growth opportunities. They will also provide insights on how a move to global regionalization will impact individual producers and the industry as a whole.

Other sessions at the Dairy Insights Summit will focus on the challenges of food waste, as well as innovations and technologies to limit food waste.

The Dairy Insights Summit is an accredited training and offers up to 5.5 Dairy AdvanCE® continuing education units (CEUs) each day. To learn more or secure credits, visit www.DairyAdvance.org.
