Max Armstrong digs into the farm bill and dairy industry concerns

April 6, 2018

Max Armstrong looks at concerns that bipartisanship may be ending in the writing of the next farm bill. A key area of concern is for the dairy farmer including a dairy margin protection program; which was a flop. Farmers paid in $96 million in premiums and received just $12 million in payments even as the industry suffers from very low prices.

Farm Progress America is a daily look at key issues in agriculture. It is produced and presented by Max Armstrong, veteran farm broadcaster and host of This Week in Agribusiness.
