Milk prices stink!!!

I have to blow off steam for a few minutes. I am trying to pay bills for our farm. HOW!!!! Our milk price is set by the Milk Market Administrator. They decided that we only needed $11.56 per hundred weight for March. Now for all you non-farmers, that means that the milk we gave to the processor (ex: Land O'Lakes) in the month of March, we didn't get paid for all of it until April 18th. The Milk Market Administrator says -hey all you have to give those dumb farmers is $11.56 per hundred weight - what are they going to do about it.
There are 11.6 gallons in a "hundred weight. So what it boils down to is we get less than $1 per gallon of milk. THAT IS NOT PROFIT. It costs us about $1.50 per gallon to break even. We are going into debt 50 cents for every gallon we make.

Do the math - we make 12,000 lbs per day.
That is 1035 gallons per day.
If we are losing 50 cents per gallon, that is $517.50 per day.
In one month that is $15,525.00.
If milk prices stayed at the current level that means in one year we would lose over $186,000.

Then the US government turns around and gives the milk to third world nations. Isn't that sweet. Yeah, it would be if they paid for it first. But they didn't they stole it from every farmer in America. The Milk Market Administrator is a division of the UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. The USDA is a department of the government. If you are as mad as I am than write to the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture. The President of the United States. Your Congressman, your Senators. It is time the American people stood up for good safe food that is produced in America. Not unless you want to get milk from China. According to the publication "Progressive Dairyman", in the past 10 years milk production has increased 17% in the United States. In that same period of time, milk production has increased 411% in CHINA. Got milk, yeah ---but where did it come from? Help to keep American Dairy farmers in business.
