of amounts deducted for
1992 commercial milk
marketings under the
Dairy Refund Payment
Program (DRPP) began

according to Ray Bru
baker, county extension
director of the Uncas
ter County Agricultural

servation Service.
The program is
authorized by the
Omnibus Budget

1990.
Farmers had 11.25
cents per hundred
weight deducted from
the price paid for all
milk produced and
marketed for commer
cial use beginning in
January 1992.
“This amount was
increased on May 1,
1992 by 2.4 cents per
hundredweight, for a
total of 13.65 cents per
hundredweight, to com
pensate for refunds paid
under the 1991 prog
ram,” Brubaker said.
USDA’s Agricultural
Marketing Service col
lects the milk assess
ments and ASCS will
issue any refunds
required.

milk producers request
ing a refund must estab
lish their milk market

1992, and the immedi
ately preceding calen
dar year, 19$ 1, before
the refund request is
made.
‘They must request
refunds from our office
between January and
March 15, 1993,”
ASCS official Brubaker

eligible for a refund
payment under the
