Administered Pricing by Cooperatives: Effect on Producer and Consumer Prices and Sales of Fluid Milk

D. H. Carley

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1976, vol. 8, issue 1, 137-141

Abstract: Considerable controversy exists with regard to pricing agricultural commodities, especially when pricing departs from classical market concepts dependent on equating supply and demand. In a recent study of alternative Class I pricing systems, it was suggested that “pricing of milk and dairy products is one of the major policy issues to be resolved in the 1970s”. A different pricing system in federal milk orders was considered urgent enough that a concentrated study of pricing alternatives was pursued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
