Reagan urged to delay milk tax decision until Aug 29
President Reagan faces a Monday deadline on whether to delay the second 50 cent per hundredweight milk assessment. Agriculture officials oppose and cite a broader dairy fraud probe involving butter tested for fat content and possible contamination. Congress views the pause as time to craft new dairy legislation amid storage of large surplus butter.

FmHA maintains dairy loan moratorium through 1984
The Farmers Home Administration will continue a nationwide moratorium on new dairy farm loans through June 30, 1984. No loans will be issued to new dairy farmers or to those converting to dairy operations, with exceptions for expansion, family succession, and certain existing operations. The push is to curb over expansion amid rising government surplus and foreclosures.
