February milk minimums rise on butter price boost
Dairy farmers selling drinking milk will receive an average of 8.90 per 100 pounds in February, up 39 cents from the pre boost level. The change follows USDA price support adjustments and uses the Minnesota Wisconsin M W manufacturing milk average to set Class I minimums in 61 marketing order areas. The boost likely won’t raise consumer prices as cooperatives already set higher prices. A March rule keeps February M W as the base for March minimums. In separate briefings, hog producers were reminded to ship only garbage fed hogs to approved slaughter plants, following a Georgia case. Also, Gary K Madson was named deputy administrator of USDA Rural Development Service, a return to a $36 000 annual post after serving nine months as deputy.
