Premiums For July Milk Set By Sanitary Milk Producers
Milk deliveries in the St Louis market for July and August will carry a 35 cent premium on Class 1 milk and 10 cents on Class 2 under a AAA government order. The Federal Order price is listed at 2.10 per hundredweight, with Class 1 at 2.45 after premium. Producers cite hot weather and feed issues to justify higher costs, while some handlers oppose the Class 2 premium due to competition with manufacturing milk pricing. May production averaged 155 pounds per dairyman per day compared with 130 pounds last May.
