Saving support program Farm Bureau’s goal
NEW ORLEANS, La -
“The question is not 75, 80 or
90 percent of parity, but
rather how to save the
present dairy price support
program,” Hollis Hatfield,
director of the dairy
department of the American
Farm Bureau Federation,
said last week at the dairy
conference of the
organization’s 62nd annual
meeting in New Orleans
The current dairy price
support program expires in
September and opposition to
the program is increasing

equivalent), the largest
since 1962, with a record
dollar value ot ?1.3 billion as
one of the reasons that the
program is in jeopardy.
Dairymen have increased
milk production to a record
128 billion pounds while
demand for the product has
decreased.
“Why should cow numbers
increase when demand is
decreasing 7” Hatfield
asked
Currently, cow numbers
are up with 1980 being the
first time in 27 years that the
dairy industry has been

It would also indicate
producer and industry

the credibility of the
program,” he said.
