Surplus cuts eyed as milk output set to rise in U S
U S total milk production may reach 127.6 billion pounds this year, about one billion more than 1964’s record. Factors include heavy grain feeding and smaller decline in milk cow numbers, with 17.6 million cows on Jan 1 1968 and per cow output up 4.2 percent from 1963. A New York dairy cooperative proposal suggests voluntary retirements with payments to reduce surpluses, potentially saving federal spending.
