There seems to be some
misunderstanding about the
dairy price support program
and what price it is trying to
support.
Some of the confusion was
the result of the average
Minnesota-Wisconsm price
of $12.07 for 3.5 test milk for
September. The support
price at that tune was $12.07
for 3.5 milk and some
producers thought that the
market price had finally
reached the support price -
which wasn’t true.
The price support
program of USDA is aimed
at supporting the average
national price of
manufacturing grade milk,
This is milk that is not sold
through federal milk
marketing orders anywhere
m the country.
It’s a national average and
for the month of September
it was $11.89 or IS cents
below the support price of
$12.07 that month. On Oc
tober 1 the support price
went to $12.80. So the gap
now is even wider.
The M-W price is also an
average price for
manufacturing grade milk,
but only for the two state
area of Minnesota and
Wisconsin. Over half the
manufacturing grade milk in
the country is produced in
these two states so it’s easier
to get a fix on the market
value of milk here. That’s
why it’s used to determine
the Basic Formula Price of
class prices in federal or
ders.
Because of this con
centration, the M-W price
usually runs a little higher
than the national average. In
September it was $12.07 or 18

cents higher than the
national average of $11.89. It
was only a coincidence that
it was the same as the
support price in September.
While I’m at it, I should
also explain that
manufacturing grade milk is
not the same as Class II
milk. They may both be used
for making butter, powder,
cheese or condensary
products, but that’s all that
you can do with manufac
turing grade milk. It can’t be
sold for Quid use or any
Class I products and it is not
qualified for pooling in a
federal order.
Class II milk is part of a
state or federal milk
marketing order and not
only can be, but must be,
used for Quid sales if it is
needed. It’s sometimes
viewed as the “necessary
surplus” needed to insure an
adequate supply of Quid milk
but that idea is a little over
done.
The point is that Class II
milk is just as good as Class I
and can be used wherever it
is needed. Manufacturing
grade milk has not been
qualified for Quid use so it
cannot be sold through state
or federal marketing ordr rs.

Finally, there are times
when Class Q milk may be
sent to manufacturing plants
in Minnesota and Wisconsin
by a federal order handler
for several reasons. Such
milk is not included when
figuring either the M-W or
the average manufacturing
grade price.
SPEAK UP
Pennsylvania
The
Department of Agriculture
is in the process of putting
together a proposal for
starting a fund financed by
producers to promote the
sale of dairy products in the
state. An advisory com
mittee was formed at a
meeting m Harrisburg on
September 30 that includes
two independent producers;
representatives of 14 dairy
co-ops and four farm
organizations; and three ex
officio members from dairy
promotion organizations.
Generally, they’re
thinking of a deduction of
three quarters of one per
cent that will average about
rune cents a hundred in the
state and produce about $7
million a year.
However, nothing has been
decided yet Certainly not
everyone is in favor of the
same rate, how the money is
to be used or even if Penn
sylvania should have such a
fund.
If anything is proposed, it
will be in place of whatever
contributions you are
making now, not in addition
to these.
The important thing now is
to make your feelings known
now to the advisory com
mittee while there’s still
tune to get what you want.
