Milk in the New England and Other Marketing Areas; Recommended Decision and Opportunity To File Written Exceptions on Proposed Amendments to Tentative Marketing Agreements and to Orders

Resumo

This document recommends adopting a proposal to have the Class II milk price in all Federal orders be the basic formula price for the second preceding month plus a fixed differential of $0.30. The Class II price would, like the Class I price in all Federal orders, be announced on or before the fifth day of the month and apply to milk marketed during the following month. This recommended decision would also eliminate the ``add-back'' provision that requires that the difference between the Class II price and the Class III price be added to a subsequent month's Class II price when the Class II price for the month falls below the Class III price.
