Abstract
Dairy farmers don’t need to be reminded that milk prices have declined dramatically in the past year. In September, the U.S. average all milk price was $11.50, or down about one-third compared to a year ago. The answer lies in that basic economic tenet - supply and demand. Too much supply relative to the demand for milk and dairy products.
