ERS Releases New Report on Organic Dairy Sector
NSAC, November 23, 2009 - On Monday, November 2, USDA's
Economic Research Service (ERS) released a new report on the characteristics, costs,
and issues for organic dairy farming. The study uses data from the 2005
Agricultural Resource Management Survey on US dairy operatio...ns, which includes a
targeted sample of organic farmers. Additionally, the report compares conventional
and organic production costs, and suggests that organic and conventional operations
are increasingly similar. The report concludes that the future structure of the
sector will depend upon the interpretation and implementation of new organic pasture
rules.

Help spread the word: Livestock raised conventionally on industrial or
factory farms receive the lion's share – over 70 percent! --of all
antibiotics used in the U.S.
My most recent "Beyond the Plate" article on antibiotic resistance has been posted to the Organic Valley website. Please share the link with anyone you know... who may need help understanding the seriousness of this issue. There's legislation that needs your action and plenty of resources for you too.
