The dairy sector continues to impress with its innovation. As a kid growing up on a dairy farm in northern Wisconsin, I remember the local cheese plant spreading whey on farm fields as a method of by-product disposal. Now, high-protein whey is no longer a waste or even a by-product, it's a food ingredient input that fetches demand in a growing market. This is a market where demand is outpacing supply, and with the new dietary guidelines emphasizing protein and whole dairy, the future looks bright for whey. Our ag, food & beverage vertical serves clients that are innovating and producing formulations such as these to meet ever-expanding market demand. It's an exciting development for dairy to be sure and our team at Michael Best is proud to be a part of it!
