dedication Jersey dairymen have

plants price all or part of their milk
using some form of “Equity
Pricing.”
In March of this year, the first
Federal Order hearing was held to
consider implementation of a
component pricing system into the
Great Basin Marketing area. As a
result of Equity Pricing, Jersey
dairymen received over an ad
ditional $2O million in 1985.
The Equity Program is also very
involved in working towards the
adoption of higher minimum
standards for fluid milk. The
Equity Program is playing an
active role in lobbying for
minimum standards legislation on
both the state and national levels.
In addition to California, which
has enjoyed higher standards for
over 20 years, two of the nation’s
leading dairy states, Minnesota
and Wisconsin, have passed bills
increasing their state standards
contingent upon surrounding
states doing likewise.
