June Price
Deliveries of base milk by pro
ducers in June 1966 are priced
at $6 22 per hundredweight un
der the Delaware Valley Federal
order, while excess milk will be
paid for at $4 06 per 100 pounds.
The weighted average price or
value for the total supply of June
producer milk is $5 96 per hun
dredweight, i effecting a Class I
utilization level of 64 2 percent
for the month.
The weighted average price
this June is 5 cents below the
initial Delaware Valley market
uniform price, $6 01, which was
computed one year earlier. Class
I milk in June 1967 comprised
76.4 percent of the pool, over 12
percentage-points higher than
this year, although somewhat in
flated by the reclassification of
packaged milk inventories which
occurred at that time Handlers’
cost of Class I milk this June is
28 cents above a year earlier due
to the May Ist adjustment from
$6 65 to $6 93 per hundred
weight The price of II
milk is also higher, toy 216 cents.
Umfoim prices for base and
excess milk in June are subject
to an 8-cent per point differential

or more from the nearest pricing
point Philadelphia, Pa, Tren
'ton or Atlantic City, N J.
June’s price for base milk is
down 16 cents from the May 1968
level ($6 38) because the volume
of Class I milk was significantly
lower in relation to producers’
deliveries of base milk. The ex
cess price declined one cent,
from the $4 07 paid the previous
month. Base milk represented
87.9 percent of all milk received
from Order No 4 producers dur
ing June, the last base-paying
month during the 1968 season.
The lowest percentage of base
milk during the period occurred
in May 85 percent.
The volume of producer milk
in the June pool was 1928 mil
lion pounds, up 14 6 percent from
the 168 2 million pounds pooled
during the same month of 1967
