What is a Dairy Cooperative?
A dairy cooperative is a company owned and managed collectively by its members, who are breeders and milk producers. Its primary objective is to maximize benefits for its members, generally by providing milk processing, marketing and distribution services.
The commitments of a dairy cooperative include highlighting member breeders, respecting quality and food safety standards, as well as environmental sustainability. They often strive to maintain fair practices in relations with producers and contribute to the economic development of rural regions where they operate.
The impact of a dairy cooperative in society can be significant, as it contributes to food security, maintaining jobs in rural areas, preserving agricultural traditions and promoting sustainable agricultural practices. Additionally, as a community-owned business, it can foster a sense of social responsibility and solidarity among its members and in society at large.
