Washington dairy lobbyist Lynn Stalbaum told Wisconsin Dairies Co op members that 80 percent price supports require patience and flexibility. He outlined a six point NMPF plan to extend or ladder supports, with parity never below 75 percent, and warned against total abolition risking $3 to $4 per hundred milk price drops. He noted Block will unveil proposals in early March.

Wisconsin Dairies promotes dairy product consumption
Wisconsin Dairies communications department specialist Nancy Landl pitched a plan to cut dairy support to Reagan-era levels without reducing parity. She wore red and yellow buttons at Elk Mound and Turtle Lake meetings showing a half pound butter, 36 milk glasses and one more pound cheese goal. The co op recognized outgoing young coordinators Bob and Midge Custer and John and Jill Logghe for promoting dairy products. Jim and Gail Holte were elected area coordinators, joining existing leaders on the area board.
