MONROE — The Green County Farm Service Agency, along with the Green County University of Wisconsin-Extension, are hosting a Dairy Margin Coverage informational meeting at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 13 at the Green County Justice Center, 2841 6th Street, Monroe. These meetings will be held in the multi-purpose rooms and those attending should enter on the lower level.
DMC is a voluntary risk management program that offers protection to dairy producers when the difference between the all milk price and the average feed cost (the margin) falls below a certain dollar amount selected by the producer. DMC replaces the Margin Protection Program for Dairy (MPP-Dairy).
The informational meeting will cover changes to the program, production history, coverage levels, MPP premium repayments, DMC premiums, and the DMC decision support tool. All dairy producers are encouraged to attend.
The meeting is free and open to all producers. Contact Teresa R. Zimmer at 608-325-4195, ext. 2 with questions regarding the meeting. Additional DMC meetings have been scheduled throughout Wisconsin.
