Idaho Probes Milk Prices Aligning With Neighbors
Idaho Attorney General Wayne Kidwell will have deputy Rudy Barchas work with the Dairy Products Commission to study price disparities between what farmers receive and what consumers pay. Officials note farmers get about 75 cents a gallon while bottlers keep about 25 cents, with retail prices around 1.60 to 1.70 a gallon, and discuss rebates and pricing tools under a 1971 act. The effort is described as a cooperative study, not an official investigation, to see if state law offers tools to address the gap.
