Price Ceiling Rules For Farm Goods and Milk Markets
The price ceiling order aims to give the ESA time to set ceilings by industry and product, with periodic adjustments for season, grade, and inflation. Hogs rise in summer, other products show seasonal shifts. Farm ceilings must allow a fair margin, cover processing costs, and reflect crop yield changes or higher costs. Milk ceilings align with federal order prices, or maintain relation to U S averages in other markets.
