Dairy compromise bill viewed as flawed but better than cuts
At a Midwest farm forum Rep. Gunderson and UW dairy economist Dr. Bob Cropp warned the compromise dairy plan is imperfect yet preferable to across the board price cuts. The proposal would fund diversion payments with a 50 cent assessment and require a 5 to 30 percent production reduction, with payments ending after 15 months and a possible lower price support thereafter.
