Dairy
Industry Groups Issue Joint Statement on rbST
In recent months
interest in the industry’s use of rbST and its impact
on the milk supply have been a growing issue. A quick search
of the Internet brings up a multitude of references both
pro and con on the debate.
With a number of those that supply
product to the consumer now making specific demands on their
producers with regard to the use of rbST, the PDMP Board
of Directors voted on October 25, 2006, to join with the
Northeast Dairy Producers Association in issuing a statement
to their memberships and dairy media. The statement “calls
on the entire supply chain . . . from producers, to cooperatives,
to processors, to retailers, to consumers – to work
together.”
You will find attached a copy of a letter
to the editor that is being issued jointly by PDMP and NEDPA
to contacts within the dairy media regarding our position
on this issue.
