Dairy Crisis - National Family Farm Coalition

What if we told you that dairy farmers have been subsidizing your ice cream and half & half for decades? It’s true. On average, farmers are paid $1.45 per gallon for milk it costs them $2.00 to produce. The shortfall makes it impossible for them to break even or provide for their families – much less make a profit. With just a few exceptions, dairy farmers have not been getting paid what it costs them to care for their cows for years.
