Northeast Organic Dairy Producers Alliance

To enable organic family dairy farmers, situated across an extensive area, to have informed discussion about matters critical to the well being of the organic dairy industry as a whole with particular emphasis on:

1) Establishing a fair and sustainable floor price for their product at the wholesale level

2) Promoting ethical, ecological and economically sustainable farming practices (e.g. strict pasture requirements for organic livestock)

3) Developing networks with producers and processors of other organic commodities to strengthen infrastructure within the industry (e.g. grain growers, meat packers, etc.)

4) Establishing open dialogue with organic dairy processor/retailers to better affect producer pay price and contribute to marketing efforts.
