Milk Famine Strikes Wisconsin City of Dairy Country
The city in Green County and its surrounding area face a milk shortage despite Green County housing 200 cheese factories producing 10 million pounds of cheese annually. Milkmen serve only some customers daily, forcing use of condensed milk or evaporated cream for social events and home use. Farmers sell most milk to factories or the condensed milk plant, with winter milk fetching high prices as contracts limit local supply. The dairy plant plans to expand capacity, but local availability remains scarce with the product largely shipped out.
