Milk Problems
Increase, Co-op
Speaker Says
“The problems of shifting milk
on weekends have not lessened,
but have increased,” asserted
Watson E Buckman, director of
transportation, Inter-State Milk
Producers’ Cooperative
The transportation expert told
the representatives of more than
3,000 dairy farmers from a four
state area that this problem is
caused by the continued shift of
milk sales from home delivery to
store sales
“It is further compounded,”
Buckman cited, “by store sales
running very high during the
week, making it necessary for the
dealer to need a large volume of
fluid milk during the weekdays
and a relatively small amount on
the weekend when stores are
closed.”
As a result of these continued
problems of shifting milk. Buck
man announced a study is under
way for the elimination of
duplicate truck routes and the
probability of zoning all hauling
routes The transportation
director added that, because of
geographical locations of many
of our producers, considerable
time will be necessary to com
plete the ultimate goal of the
study, which is elimination of all
unnecessary duplication of
hauling
“There is much work to be done
in the hauling work of your
cooperative’s activities,” Buck
man asserted “The importance
of this work has increased when
you review the number of plants
that closed throughout this
market in the past year ”
Buckman added, “There is still
considerable effort needed and
that much can be accomplished
in hauling ”
He concluded by noting that in
many instances this “three-day
weekend”, with stores closed,
taxes the ability of manufac
turing facilities in this market
area to handle such peak loads on
a weekend basis
