FARM Program Seeking Nominations for Task Forces

January 16, 2025


The National Dairy Farmers Assuring Responsible Management (FARM) Program is seeking applicants for its Animal Care, Environmental Stewardship and Workforce Development Task Forces for the July 2025 to June 2028 term. FARM will accept nominations until March 31; new task force members will be announced by June 15.

FARM task force members serve as program ambassadors and experts in their designated fields. Each task force guides program development and updates. Task force recommendations are reviewed by an appropriate NMPF committee and subject to final review and approval by the NMPF Board of Directors.

“FARM task forces represent dairy stakeholders from farmers to academics, who together advance FARM’s commitment to continuous improvement for the benefit of dairy farmers and the entire industry,” said Beverly Hampton Phifer, senior director of FARM Animal Care. “The task forces are essential for ensuring program standards and resources are scientifically robust and meet industry needs.”

Candidates can be nominated by a cooperative or processor, fellow dairy farmer, veterinarian, themselves or others. Nominations must be submitted via the online form. The FARM Farmer Advisory Council will review all nominations and recommend a proposed slate of new FARM Task Force members for consideration by the NMPF Executive Committee.

Visit the FARM Program website for the full list of eligibility and criteria.
