Dairy farmers income has been very depressed for the past three years, and loans have increased tremendously. I ilMpvpkß I MM don’t know at what point farmers can keep on fanning without a whole bunch of them going out of business all at once. If that hap pens, production will drop dramatically, and there will be no need for a diversion plan,” he said. “On the other hand, if, on April 1, the people who have participated in the program decide to go back into full production, and if there are as many heifers bred to freshen in the spring as everybody says there are, just the opposite could happen. “We could have increased production back to levels somewhere in the range we were before,” he said. McNamara added that it is just too soon to know, therefore dairymen should be prepared with some sort of program containing a continued incentive to ease production. Then if milk flow looks like it will increase, “we should offer this program on at least a six month basis,” he said. “Drastic cuts in supports are harsh remedies and unworkable in emergency situations.
