Revolutionize Your Agricultural Business

Most herdshare agreements available are created in the public domain. They subject you to state and federal laws that impeded on your ability to conduct business with your customers. Licensing and registration fees that are often imposed affect your profitability. These types of agreements complaint to public law also require you to pay taxes.

A PMA with a herdshare is one in which a farm offers customers “shares” of its herd of animals. The shareholders then routinely receive their “share” of the herd in the form of animal goods like milk and meat. Sometimes, restrictions prohibiting the selling of raw milk or other raw dairy products can be circumvented by using herdshares. A PMA with a herdshare contends that since the animal’s owner is permitted to consume their own milk, they are also entitled to consume the raw milk as owners of a portion of the animal herd.
