Dairy Farmers Face Lower Premium Price Amid Surging Milk Output
Saline area dairy producers, including officers James Hayes and Charles Trinkle, elected at the Saline MMPA meeting, faced a lower premium price of 1.90 and 1.65 to reflect Detroit Toledo price spreads. USDA projections show milk production rising while demand falls, with 14 000 Michigan farmers affected. Norman Peterson notes a 5 percent production rise and ongoing price pressures, warning three percent annual cost increases and bankruptcies.
