ABSTRACT
The purpose of this paper is to review for the membership of the American Dairy Science Association the organization and activities of the International Dairy Federation and the International Dairy Congress. This review is appropriate, in order that the membership will understand more fully the reasons why the Association has, on different occasions, given consideration to becoming affiliated with the International Dairy Federation and has had committees appointed to study this possibility.
