America's dairy farmers have long been dedicated to sound, scientific research to better understand and promote the value of dairy products. To expand the impact of that commitment in product, nutrition and sustainability research, the Dairy Research Institute® was established in 2010 under their leadership through Dairy Management Inc.™ (DMI), the nonprofit organization that manages the dairy checkoff program.
