Illinois Farmers Outlook Letter Finds Dairy Surplus Shrinking
The Illinois Farmers Outlook reports global dairy surpluses shrinking and US stocks down about half from a year ago. Milk output rose slightly in the US in 1964 while Europe reduced production, boosting demand for dairy products. Prices for milk rose about 11 percent, offset by higher farm costs, with regional pasture and crop yields varying in 1964.
