Maine Dairy Stabilization Act
Created by then-Governor John Baldacci, this state program provides a payment to dairy farmers when the cost of production is below the price received for milk.
PFAS/PFOS Regulation
The State of Maine looks to mitigate the impact of these chemicals on our environment. There were several bills in the last legislature that dealt with this issue
Federal Milk Marketing Orders
Authorized in the Federal Farm Bill, milk marketing orders were established to help create a fair price for milk and milk products for producers.
Dairy Programs in the Farm Bill
There are several programs targeting dairy farms included in the farm bill. See our farm bill page.
Farm Workforce Modernization Act
As farmers are looking to address issues with workforce shortages, we advocate for changes to the laws governing migrant workers on dairy farms.
