About U.S. Dairy

Commitment to our Communities

Farm families have brought the goodness of dairy products to America’s tables for generations. Processors, retailers and others in the dairy value chain join in this endeavor. Each day, dairy products not only provide nine essential nutrients for good health, but also contribute jobs, income and vitality to communities across the country. In fact, dairy’s overall impact to the U.S. economy is more than $100 billion.1

 

From dairy farmers to retailers, we are working together to ensure dairy’s value and wholesomeness, while creating high-quality products for today and for generations to come.

 

Through the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy, the entire dairy industry has united to continue our commitment to healthy people, healthy products and a healthy planet.
