TRACY, Calif. — April 5, 2017 — Dairy producer Kirsten Areias of Los Banos in Merced

County has been re-elected to serve as Member-at-Large to the Executive Committee of the

California Milk Advisory Board (CMAB), the promotional arm of the state's dairy farmers.

Kirsten and her husband Dennis currently milk 320 Holsteins at the 360-acre Den-K

Holsteins, Inc. She has been a dairy producer since 1980. Kirsten is a member of a variety of

industry groups, including Western United Dairyman and serves as an advisor for the California

California is the nation’s leading milk producer. It also produces more butter and nonfat

dry milk than any other state. The state is the second-largest of cheese and yogurt. Dairy

products made with Real California milk can be identified by the Real California Milk or Real

California Cheese seal, which certifies that the products are made exclusively with milk
