Shortage May Limit Milk Price Gains Across Regions
A government report shows August milk production above a year earlier, cooling the chance of broader price hikes for producers. The Agriculture Department has 55 of 82 milk marketing areas seeking emergency price increases due to drought and higher feed costs, ranging about half to one cent per quart. Areas span from New York to the Midwest and South Central, serving roughly 69.8 million people and 126,000 dairymen. August output reached 10,177,000,000 pounds versus 10,130,300,000 a year prior, with some milk diverted to government dairy price support purchases. Production uneven by region, raising the possibility of increases in some markets but not others. States with the largest declines include Connecticut, New Jersey, Illinois, Missouri, South Dakota, Nebraska, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Montana, Colorado, and Wyoming.
