Golden Spread Agribusiness: Talks Texas Dairy

Young dairy cattle are gathered in a barn Thursday Sept. 4, 2014, in East Montpelier, Vt. Vermont agriculture officials visited the farm to encourage the state’s dairy farmers to enroll in a new program that protects farmers from low milk prices. Minimum coverage for the Margin Protection Program costs farmers a $100 flat fee. Additional coverage costs more depending on the level of protection the farmer wants and the size of the farm.
