The Margin Protection Program for Dairy (MPP-Dairy) is a voluntary risk management program for dairy producers authorized by the 2014 Farm Bill through Dec. 31, 2018. The MPP-Dairy offers protection to dairy producers when the difference between the all milk price and the average feed cost (the margin) falls below a certain dollar amount selected by the producer.
Signup for MPP-Dairy takes place from September 2 through November 28, 2014. During this first signup period, producers can register for the September through December 2014 coverage period and/or the January through December 2015 coverage period.
2014 and 2015 coverage elections may be different. Coverage election in subsequent years will take place from July 1 through September 30.
