Find out about the power struggle in the dairy industry. How can farmers stand up against big processors? Learn ways to build a lasting future.

The dairy industry has a big problem with big processors and co-ops having more power than small farmers. This makes it hard for farmers to make money and get better prices for their milk. Big processors can produce milk products cheaply and sell them for more money. Rules that are supposed to help sometimes support only these big companies. Even though it’s tough, some farmers are trying new ways to get back some power. They work together, find new markets, use technology, prepare for risks, and talk to lawmakers to make the industry fairer.

A new study from the University of Calgary shows a promising way to fight Johne’s disease in dairy cattle. This disease, caused by a specific harmful bacteria, has been a big problem for dairy farms worldwide. The research introduces the use of phage therapy, where unique viruses are used to target and destroy these bacteria, protecting young calves from infection. If successful, this method could improve herd health and save farmers money by reducing the disease’s impact. The study found that phage therapy provides strong protection for calves, cutting down the spread of the bacteria. This could lower Johne’s disease rates in herds and help farmers avoid losing about $16,500 yearly for a herd of 1,000 cows. This approach might also help reduce the use of antibiotics in agriculture, offering a new direction for farm management.

President Donald Trump’s second inauguration might change the American dairy industry a lot. His speech on January 20, 2025, talked about boosting the economy, protecting trade, cutting rules, and having stricter immigration laws. These could all affect dairy farming. This means both chances and problems for farmers. To succeed, farmers should be flexible, use new technologies, and explore different markets. They need to stay informed and ready to react to these changes. With Trump’s focus on growth, there might be more support for U.S. dairy production, fewer regulations, and more jobs in rural areas. But changes in trade deals could make overseas trade harder. Also, there might be fewer workers because of stricter immigration laws. Finally, cutting rules might mean less environmental and safety regulations for dairy farms. Overall, Trump’s plans mean dairy farmers need to adapt quickly and look for new opportunities to succeed.
