MDAR works closely with more than twenty commodity groups and provides assistance to them in their marketing efforts. Staff members regularly attend commodity group meetings, speak at industry conferences, and generally serve in an outreach role to farmers.

The Bureau also co-organizes Agriculture Day at the State House with the Massachusetts Agriculture Promotion Board (MAPB), an organization which represents many of the state’s commodity groups.

If you would like more information, contact Mary Jordan.
