Mid-Am dairy update outlines price support and changes
More than 150 members heard Mid-Am Northern Operations Manager Walt Wolfe review the dairy price support situation, the proposed 50-cent milk check assessment, and lawsuits challenging the check off at District 9. Wolfe noted a cautious economy spurring new producers and higher production to sustain cash flow. He reported Mid-Am’s buyout of its partner in Wilsey Bennett butter packaging in Oklahoma and a 50 percent stake in Clearfield Cheese Company to market large volumes of the cooperative's cheese. 1982 sales topped 1.25 billion with net margins of 8 million, up from the prior year. District 9 director Tom Lewis noted 8.8 million in equity and cash returns, plus 2.3 million in equity refunds mailed this month. Delegates, officers, and honors were announced for 1983 including Bruce Winger as Chairman and several district officers and alternates. A plaque recognized Rene and Duane Bowers as Young Cooperator Couple of 1982.
