Plain-English Summary

The bill would create a new program to help stabilize dairy prices and production when market conditions become unstable, protecting dairy farmers from extreme price swings. The program would give farmers tools to manage their milk supply during periods of oversupply or undersupply, similar to existing programs for other agricultural products. This affects dairy farmers, milk processors, and ultimately consumers who buy milk and dairy products.
