## Summary

**Rolling three-year production history** becomes the basis for Dairy Margin Coverage, recalculated once every five years, and premium tier cutoffs for the program are raised to $6 million. - Dairy producers will have DMC coverage based on the most recent three-year production history instead of the 2011–2013 base, with that three-year window updated every five years. - Farms near the program size breakpoints see the Tier I and Tier II thresholds increase from $5 million to $6 million, which changes which operations fall into each premium tier and how premiums are applied.

## Provisions PRIA read

- New DMC rules for dairy farms: mixed, medium. This bill would change Dairy Margin Coverage (DMC) rules for dairy farms. It would raise the premium tier line from 5,000,000 to 6,000,000. Some farms could shift to Tier I and pay lower premiums. It would also use your most recent three-year production history, recalculated once every five years.…
