Wisconsin dairy referendum approval boosts national promo drive
Chic Russell of Shullsburg, one of six Wisconsin farmers on the 36 member National Dairy Promotion and Research Board, says the referendum's approval signals progress and more promotion to regain dairy’s share of the consumer dollar. The board plans new and expanded campaigns for cheese and fluid milk, with emphasis on Swiss, mozzarella, and cheddar. Russell notes a 3 percent rise in commercial dairy sales and fluid milk consumption, while prices remain down. He confirms willingness to serve another term. Wisconsin colleagues on the board include Don Haldeman, John Malcheski, Audrey Sickinger, Jerry Sipple, and Dan Rodenkirch.
