DMC

DMC offers a dairy margin protection plan which provides payments to dairy operations when the difference between the all-milk price and the average feed cost fall below a certain, producer selected, dollar amount. Producers will be eligible for a basic level of margin protection for a small administrative fee and be able to purchase higher coverage with a premium fee. The Secretary of Agriculture (Secretary) will use administrative fees collected to cover administrative costs incurred to carry out the DMC program.
