    BEIJING -- U.S. Dairy Export Council President and CEO Tom Vilsack met Friday with officials from Chinese government and agriculture to deliver a message that the U.S. dairy industry remains committed to this high-potential market despite the challenge of retaliatory tariffs. 

    “We want an ongoing relationship with China,” Vilsack told employees from USDEC’s China and U.S. offices before a whirlwind day of meetings. “We are in this for the long haul. We want to be here 10 years from now, 20 years from now and 50 years from now.

    “At some point, our governments will figure out these trade issues and when they do we want to be in the best position possible for our member companies and farmer-funders.”
