Ford Vetoes Increase In Milk Price Supports
President Ford vetoed a bill to raise federal milk price supports to 85 percent of parity, arguing the move would be highly inflationary for consumers. The action would have lifted the price support to $7.69 per hundredweight, translating to about 6 cents more per half gallon of milk. Secretary Butz announced an administrative increase for manufacturing milk to $7.24 per 100 pounds, effective immediately, to curb farm price declines while costs stay high through March 31, 1976.
