OK- explain this one to me, as most of the area farms where I have open permission to hunt, and shoot vermin, year around are working dairy farms-- at best, a farm of some acreage needs a minumum market price of $17.50/hundred wt. for their milk to "break even" annually. But when the retail price of a gallon of milk goes from $4.95/ to $5.25, does the dairy farmer see his check increase from the milk Co-Op to which he sells his raw pastuerized milk--???? IMO, the farmer gets "screwed, jewed and tattoed by the market.."" Many family farms that I have known have sold out their milking stock-mostly Holsteins, and are doing beef only now-a-days. How can a bunch of fat cats on the Chicago Board of Trade regulate the market, they get rich, the farmer gets screwed.. RWTF
You’re asking the wrong guy, Fox.
Should be right in Stan’s wheelhouse though.
