SITE EXCA Milk Marketing Board Mandates An Increase (Continued from Pago A 1) and sold within the state. The $1.40 over-order premium will be in effect for a six-month period beginning Jan. 1, 2001. Therefore, beginning Jan. 1, 2001, the total of the over-order premium and the fuel adjust ment premium placed on Class I milk that is produced, pro cessed, and sold in Pennsylvania will be $1.65. This action is the result of a hearing held Nov. 8, 2000. The Board based its decision on testimony presented at the hearing showing that an over order premium of $1.40 per one hundred pounds of milk (ex cluding the $.25 fuel adjust ment) responds appropriately to the factors of cost of production, prices received by Pennsylvania dairy farmers, as well as market conditions. The over-order premium is a dollar amount added to the min imum Class I price to be paid to Pennsylvania dairy farmers that is announced by the Federal Government and the Milk Mar keting Board monthly. Pennsyl vania has mandated an over order premium on Class I milk produced, processed, and sold in Pennsylvania since 1988.
