ARLINGTON, VA – For Joel Eigenbrood, dairy farming wasn’t a part of his original life plan. Balance sheets and budgets shaped his path into becoming a dairy advocate, using his voice to enact change in an industry he believes in.
“The coolest thing about dairy is there are multiple ways to enter the industry,” said Eigenbrood. “Any career field that you want to join, there’s a spot for it in dairy.”
Eigenbrood, chief financial officer for Mibelloon Dairy in Mount Pleasant, MI and current chairman of Foremost Farms Inc., talks about his changing relationship with the industry and the importance of advocacy for dairy in the newest edition of NMPF’s Farmer Focus series.
