PDPW’s nine-member Board of Directors is elected by active PDPW dairy-farm members. Each director, who is also an active dairy producer, can serve two three-year terms. Equipped with the leadership skills and a vision to serve, PDPW board members actively shape the organization’s educational calendar, create a relevant plan of work, and serve on other industry-action committees throughout the dairy sector and beyond.
