Dairy Purchases Seen Doubling Under Price Support
U SDA analysts expect purchases of butter cheese and powdered milk under the price support program to double this year to about 7.3 billion pounds of milk equivalent with costs potentially surpassing 740 million dollars. Increased production and Carter’s higher milk price supports drive the rise as surplus products are held for market sale or donated to schools and foreign aid. In the prior year 3.4 billion pounds were bought at roughly 311 million dollars as prices rose and output grew. Separately the FDA proposed stricter limits on certain antibiotics used in animal feed to curb resistance while permitting therapeutic veterinary use.
