A Dallas Wellness Examiner just published a blog spot on dairy prices. It seems the consumer is finally taking notice that dairy farmers are taking a hit in these volatile times. Here is what she has to say about the dairy industry today…
The economy sinks and so do buyers for luxury cars, luxury hair cuts and high-priced boots, but have we hit such a bottom that even milk is going sour?
I read a report today that said the global recession has dairy producers fearing the future.
Local dairy farmer, Pete Schouten, who operates a 750-cow dair near Stephenville, southwest of Forth Worth told the paper, “(Producers) are holding on, hoping for a turnaround in prices.”
The drop in milk prices causes most farmers like Schouten to take concern.
