Abstract

Excerpts from the report Preface: The system of paying farmers who supply fluid milk markets is dependent upon the classification of their milk. Consequently, dairy farmers, along with milk distributors, consumers, and governmental agencies, have a direct and continuing interest in the classification plans adopted by the markets. This study reviews the experience with classified pricing in the 68 fluid milk markets which were under Federal regulation at the end of 1957. The direction and extent of changes that occurred in solving the classification problems in major fluid milk markets indicate factors to be considered in the further evolution of the system and in the classification of new products.
