Milk is priced now using a multi component system. You get paid one price on the pounds of protein you ship, one for the pounds of butter fat, one for the pounds of "other" solids, then a PPD(producer price differential). Which has something to do with (since we are in Federal Order 1) the distance we are from Boston, MA. They offer complete college courses on just milk pricing so I can't really explain all the details here. Just know that since the government is involved it's complicated. I don't complain too much about milk price, except to say it's better then the $12/cwt we got last year.
