Milk Going Up?
From the looks of things it will be hard to get a container of milk in coming months. The dairy farmers can no longer afford to feed the cows that produce the milk. It's my opinion that milk is already too high and now it will even be hard to find.........
Prices for milk now are about half what it costs farmers to produce the staple, and consumer prices are falling. Unless the market can be bolstered, industry officials project that more than 1.5 million of the nation's 9.3 million milking cows could be slaughtered this year as dairy operators look to cut costs and generate cash.
