Save on DBA dues, renew for 3 years

By Dale Beaty, director of member relations

Over the past two years, the disruptive impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the dairy community have been broad and varied. DBA members faced a multitude of challenges brought about due to the pandemic. Dairy farmers and agribusinesses have been planning production and managing budgets at a time when markets - food, commodity, labor, energy - are being jolted by global, national, and regional shutdowns, slowdowns, and overall uncertainty. Those shocks to the U.S. and global economies have affected both the supply and demand for inputs and food in the U.S. and the rest of the world. Not only were the consequences of the crisis for dairy immediate and severe, but the new variants of the virus keeps all of us running on an exhausting treadmill of uncertainty. 

We realize when times are difficult, you need support the most. The entire DBA staff rallied to get out in front of the challenges you were facing to help you successfully navigate through the uncertainty. From extensive work on financial assistance for farmers to crucial information about employee safety, DBA delivered the kind of support you have expected and received in the past. Despite the obstacles, we all kept moving forward.

We wanted to provide you with an opportunity to continue receiving the outstanding value of DBA services while rewarding you with a price break. With those goals in mind, the membership team put together a special promotion deal for you: Get DBA membership for the next three years and receive a 20 percent discount. You can lock in three years of valuable services, reduce your tax burden, and not worry about an annual payment again until 2025.
