DAIRY POLICY OPTIONS FOR THE 2007 FARM BILL: A PENNSYLVANIA PERSPECTIVE

No 18848, Staff Paper Series from Pennsylvania State University, Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to explore broad policy options in both the 2007 Farm Bill and the current Doha Round of trade negotiations (WTO) that could be favorable to Pennsylvania. It will be argued that the most favorable outcomes will have two features: 1) improve and stabilize market demand for fluid milk, and 2) expand national demand for manufacturing milk. This policy recommendation recognizes that the U.S. will continue to expand milk production over time. It also assumes a continuation of federal milk marketing orders.
