Dairy doesn’t sleep

I spent a decent portion of the last working week on my computer, watching dairy leaders from around the world discuss the effects of the pandemic on the industry, and what the industry did in response. Overall, it was quite a feat on the part of the organisers in Denmark and of the international dairy industry in general, to produce a conference with both in-person and remote sessions. But this is not the first time that dairy has stepped up to the plate and managed to deliver.

And what a year it was

For many in the dairy industry, this year has been a whipsaw of emotions, ranging from fear to happiness, and the many facets in between.

Second verse, same as the first

For those of you not distracted by the US election, Europe and the UK are going back into a second lockdown due to the upsurge in coronavirus cases. Same show, different day. But here we are, and how is dairy doing? Well, after attending the Royal Association of British Dairy Farmers policy conference this morning, I can say, I am optimistic.

Plugging back in

The summer has brought good news and bad news, depending on where you live on the planet. Here in England, our lockdown restrictions are easing and treats like eating out in restaurants are restored.
