The Luzerne County DHIA finished its 57th year with 21 whole year herds and seven owner sampler herds. USDA Buyout Report WASHINGTON - An estimated 9,700 head of dairy cattle were slaughtered in federally inspected plants during the week ending Nov. 15, as a result of the Dairy Ter mination Program, the U.S Department of Agriculture an nounced Wednesday. This total includes all cows, heifers and calves identified as dairy animals designated for disposition in compliance with the program requirements. The cumulative total of cattle slaughtered under the program from April 1 through Nov. 15 is an estimated 861,800 head. The purchases of meat in ad dition to normal purchases are to help offset the effects of the DTP on the domestic meat market. The cumulative purchases, reported bi weekly as of Nov. 29, total 310.4 million pounds. Dairy cattle reported for export under the program for the period April 1 to Nov. 29 totaled an estimated 44,514 head. An estimated 640 were exported during the week ending Nov. 29. Live cattle exported under the program are expected to increase as countries develop tenders to participate in the export enhan cement program. Mandatory Supply Management (Continued from Page A 36) During the same period, the “all milk” price to U.S. farmers was 39 cents lower, $12.60 per cwt after adjustment for government price support assessments). Investment in quota can be estimated by the rate at which it has sold on the quota exchange operated by the Ontario Milk Marketing Board. Recent prices are about U.S. $2B per cwt or U.S. $4,200 for a 15,000 pound cow’s annual production. Obviously, this is more than the total value of one year of milk production and represents over one-third of the total capital needed to operate an Ontario dairy farm. With supply management, supplies (except for nonfat dry milk) have been kept reasonably close to market requirements. Costs to the government have been reduced by controlling supply, raising milk prices, and levying assessments on milk marketed by dairy farmers. Although net farm milk prices in Canada are slightly higher than U.S. averages, Canadian farmers have sharply higher investments in their farms because of the quota value. Also Canadian farmers must manage production closely: under production may mean loss of quota; milk sold over quota nets little more than the hauling cost. Supply management has not stopped farms from exiting the dairy industry. In fact, the sale value of quotas may have en couraged some farmers to cash in their assets. Restrictions on quota sales to family-sized operations in some provinces may have limited the development of very large milk production units. The Canadian system provides some valuable lessons, but would not adapt easily to U.S. conditions.
