Sponsored By: Representative Langworthy
In Committee
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.
Show full summary
- 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.

New DMC rules for dairy farms
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. Depending on recent output, your coverage and premiums could go up or down; if enacted, changes would start at enactment.
