Dairy price study examines costs for Nebraska milk products
The Nebraska Dairy Products Advisory Board held two days of testimony to set minimum prices for milk and dairy goods. James Clayton of Memphis led a cost study for Area 3 and Area 4 processors, finding per half gallon costs of 32.5 to 34 cents. Witnesses debated delivery, packaging, and private labels while a lawyer warned the law might be unconstitutional. Park vandalism and camping harassment rise at state recreation areas.
