"Our dairy industry needs a margin insurance program now, and everyone, from producers to processors to domestic consumers to exporters and even to taxpayers who fund food and nutrition programs, needs this to be put in place without the controversial stabilization program," says Connie Tipton, IDFA president and CEO, in her latest Cheese Market News column.
She urges Congress to support the Goodlatte-Scott amendment and its "policies that provide an effective safety net for dairy producers without restraining our ability to serve growing markets."
