Each fall, ODPA hosts district meetings throughout the state at member farms to share how it is working with State officials, regulatory agencies and industry partners to strengthen Ohio's dairy industry and protect its future.

At the meetings, dairy producers can participate in an open forum to discuss local issues with fellow dairy farmers, ODPA staff and elected officials. Each meeting includes a relevant education session by a credible dairy expert and a farm tour that provides dairy producers valuable information to consider for their own business.
