Wrong Direction
It would seem that the
government was selling
dairy products instead of
buying them because the
Mumesota-Wisconsin price
series went in the wrong

were erven higher, going to 60
million pounds of butter, 88
million of powder and 27
million of cheese. In fact
they were the largest since
1971.
In four months this year,
the government has bought
the equivalent of nearly
three billion pounds of milk.
That’s a third more than all
the purchases in 1979.
In spite of all this, the M-W
price dropped two cents in
May to $11.66, reflecting the
amount of milk coming to
market and being diverted to
butter, powder and cheese.
At $11.66, the M-W is still
miles away from the support
price of $12.07 even though
cheese and powder prices
are within a cent of the

support prices and butter is
lagging by 3.7 cents.
That 24 cent jump back in
March will give you a Class I
price of $13.84 for May in
Order 2. That’s 24 cents
better than April.
Your Class II price will be
$11.64. That’s five cents less
than last month.
Your Louisville Plan take
out will mcrease 10 cents
over April to 40 cents for
May. So in spite of a much
better Class I price, you had
better look for another blend
price below $12.00,
especially if your Class I
utilization drops below 40
percent.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, June 14,19t0—C23
the $5OO assessment of
Eastern Milk Producers’
members to cover the $2
million in losses suffered by
the co-op when five
proprietary handlers went
through bankruptcy.
Everyone should realize
that the dairy industry is a
high volume, big money,
slow paying business and
handlers ( or co-ops) can
lose millions in no time at
all. Constant vigilance by
everyone, including
producers, is needed to avoid
big problems.
Part of Eastern’s problem
is collecting the money,
is owed by the New York
state security fund. Because
of all the bankruptcies, the
fund is getting low.
Payments to producers and
co-ops are taking much
longer. Some may have to
wait for new revenues to
replenish the fund.
But expenses continue and
producers pay.

The first lesson is to try
harder to get a security fund
in Pennsylvania to cover our
producers more adequately.
Another lesson may be to
take a harder lode at both
states to see what may be
needed to make a fund more
effective.
For those who are in
terested, it may be the
example needed to get two
cents a hundred in the pot
instead of one cent. It may
also make the Pennsylvania
promise of 75 percent
payment when die fund is
low look pretty good com
pared to some zero
payments in New York.
Certainly something is
better than nothing in
Pennsylvania or New York. I
don’t think there’s anything
wrong m learning from
someojne else’s problems.
