Wisconsin dairy producers interested in serving the state’s dairy industry have until March 31 to submit a nomination form to represent their district as a Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin (DFW) director.
Nine of DFW’s 25 districts currently are up for election, including District 10, which includes Brown, Door and Kewaunee Counties. To qualify, a nominee must be an active dairy producer who sells milk into commercial channels and lives in the represented district up for election.
Each potential candidate must acquire at least five signatures from active dairy producers within the district, submit a completed nomination form, and have the Affidavit of Eligibility certification requirement notarized.
Producers interested in serving as a director can contact DATCP Market Orders Program Coordinator Debbie Gegare at (608) 224-5116 or Debbie.Gegare@wisconsin.gov for a nomination form, or they can access an electronic copy at www.WisconsinDairy.org/elections.
