• Dairy Price Support Program (“dairy cliff”)
• Livestock Gross Margin for Dairy Cattle
CREATED
• Margin Protection Program for Dairy Producers
• Dairy Product Donation Program
• Potential California Federal Order
THE MARGIN PROTECTION PROGRAM
• Voluntary program based on U.S. income-over-feed-cost margin
• Makes payments when the avg. difference between the US All-Milk price and a national feed ration index falls below the user-selected coverage option
• Protects dairy producers from severe downturns in the milk price, rising livestock feed prices, or both
• No production or payment limitations
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
• Must have commercial milk marketed or sold in US
• The owners must be US citizens or legal resident aliens (green card holders)
• Must certify compliance with conservation
provisions
• If the operation participated in MILC then it met these requirements

MPP-Dairy: Four Key Elements
1. Actual Dairy Production Margin
2. Production History
3. Covered Production History (%)
4. Coverage Levels & Premiums ($/cwt)
26
Actual Dairy Production Margin
27
• Approximates milk revenue over all feed costs on the farm • Single, national formula, that cannot be customized
Actual Dairy Production Margin = U.S. All-Milk Price - 1.0728 x NASS Corn Price ($/bu) - 0.00735 x AMS Soybean Meal (Central IL) ($/ton) - 0.0137 x NASS Alfalfa Hay ($/ton)
Based on feed ration per cwt of milk:
• 30 pounds of shell corn • 106.4 pounds of corn silage • 14.7 pounds of soybean meal • 27.4 pounds of alfalfa hay

Actual Production History and Covered Production History
30
• Actual Production History is the highest amount of milk marketed by the operation in 2011, 2012, or 2013
• Each year of participation, an operation’s production history will increase based on national growth in milk production.
• Each year, producers may choose coverage
percentage of 25% to 90% of their production history, in 5% increments.

OTHER MPP ISSUES • Can participate in LGM-Dairy or MPP not both
• Sign up for 2014 (last 4 months) and 2015 September 2 through November 28, 2014
• Sign up for 2016 and subsequent years will take place July 1 through September 30 of the preceding year
• Once a producer signs up for MPP, they are committed to at least the $4/cwt level in future years • Higher coverage levels can be selected but $4/cwt
is used if no coverage is selected • Note this also means the $100 administrative fee
will apply in future years 36

2015 MI Mailbox Forecast
FACTORS TO WATCH Bullish • Butter and cheese
inventories remain low
• Drought in West continues
• High beef prices encourage culling
• Strengthening US economy
Bearish • US prices not
competitive • US dollar rising • Low feed prices • EU production quotas
ending • Russian purchases cut
off • Slowing Chinese
purchases • EU quotas ending
SUMMARY • Milk prices (and margins) will be lower
• Cash butter and cheese prices declined in last
week indicating Holiday demand concerns about stocks are diminishing
• US dairy exports are down and dairy imports are up
• “Market correction” to align prices with world prices might be messy
