Carter signs dairy price support bill amid surplus concerns
President Carter signed HR 4167 to set milk price supports at 80 to 90 percent of parity, with Congressmen Baldus Obey and Nelson present. Baldus noted the move aims to assure milk supply for the public and farmers, while Carter warned of potential future excess stock and urged flexibility in later bills. Officials say retail dairy prices will rise about 11 percent this year before easing.
