More Proposals
Recently I mentioned
proposals for changes in
Order 2 that would increase
the transportation credit, the
negotiated hauling charge
and the zone differentials
inside the 201-210 mile zone,
as well as expanding the
market area into nor
theastern Pennsylvania.
There’s another one made
by Eastern Milk Producers
that certainly will have wide
appeal among farmers.
It’s a proposal for partial
payments for your milk
received by a handler during
the first 15 days of the
month.

According to the proposal,
the payment would be made
at not less than the Class II
prce on or before the 10th
day of the following month.
Final payments would be
made, as now, on or before
the 25th day of the following
month.

Some handlers make
voluntary partial payments
now (Garden State Farms
has paid weekly) but these
are not required under Order
2, only under Pennsylvania
Milk Marketing Board
regulations.
The system could work
because the Class II price is
announced by the sth day of
the following month. So
payment could be made by
the 10th day for 3.5 per cent
butterfat

Then, in the final payment
on the 25th day, adjustments
would be made for butterfat
test, transportation dif
ferentials or anything that
affects an individual
producer’s price

It would mean that
proprietary handlers
buying milk from co-ops
would also have to make
partial payments to the co
ops as well as their own
producers. It would also
reduce the tune lag for non
payment by handlers and
include a charge for late
payments
Handlers generally may
not like the idea because
there’s an added cost in the
extra check writing. And
they’ll have less of your
money to use during the 55
days you’re waiting for the
final payment.
However, it’s nothing new
in federal milk marketing
orders, and all but seven now
require some type of partial
payment
In fact, Order 40 in
Southern Michigan has a
proposal to consider from
the Michigan Milk
Producers Association that
would require three
payments a month by
handlers.
Right now it’s only a
proposal and we’ll have to
wait for the announcement
to leam if it will be included
in Order 2 hearings. Just
don’t call it an advance
payment as I did or some
Eastern member will
straighten you out.
