Burlington, VT – Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont, says there are no fixes coming out of the federal government for Vermont's dairy crisis.
Vt. Agriculture Commissioner Roger Allbee says the financial stress of low milk prices could force 200 dairy farms out of business by the end of the year.
Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vermont, is proposing a quota system where milk production is limited to prevent an oversupply that causes prices to plummet.
Leahy says it will be a challenge to get farmers from all over the country to support that idea.
