1968 Shows Little Change In Dairy Prices
Michigan State University economist Dr. John Ferris projects small shifts in 1968 dairy prices with the 1967 support price of 4 dollars per cwt for manufacturing milk likely to persist into 1968 69. Class I prices should stay near 1967 levels as Michigan sales hold steady despite national demand shifts and ongoing herd reductions. Slaughter cow prices and off farm job prospects remain favorable, prompting many dairy farmers to switch enterprises.
