The East and Southern African Dairy Association (ESADA) is RATES key partner in the dairy sector. ESADA was formally created following a resolution coming out of the RATES supported dairy summit held last year. ESADA was recently granted regional membership status at this year’s International Dairy Federation (IDF) World Dairy Summit, held September 17th- 22nd, 2005 in Vancouver, Canada. With “Partnership” as the theme in Vancouver, IDF President Jim Begg was pleased to announce the new IDF memberships of seven ESADA member countries from Africa (jointly under one membership). Countries include Kenya, Malawi, Mauritius, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. These countries bring the total membership of IDF to 49 and solidify IDF as a global authority on dairy issues.
