The Alberta Milk Board of Directors invites you to attend our Fall Producer Meetings.

These meetings serve a critical role in ensuring producers are well-informed about current issues and opportunities in the dairy industry. It provides time to engage with the Board, and with each other, to share your perspectives and have your questions answered.

MEETING AGENDA

At the meeting, you will receive updates on anticipated production needs, trade and tariffs, Dairy Innovation West, and how Marketing and Nutrition Education funds are used to promote the industry.

We will also be consulting producers on a new Credit Accumulation Restriction Policy being considered.

Lastly, at the 2025 Annual General Meeting, a motion was brought to the floor requesting staff evaluate the feasibility, safety, and regulatory implications of allowing the use of on-farm milk silos. Discovery from that work will be shared, and next steps will be discussed.

Note: The agenda is subject to change without notice.
