Dairy Producers Reminded of November 1 Deadline to Submit Production Evidence for the Milk Income Loss Contract (MILC) Program

USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA), reminds producers that final production evidence and any supporting documentation for the Milk Income Loss Contract (MILC) program for eligible months (including fiscal years 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013) that MILC payments were available must be submitted by Nov. 1, 2013. 

Statutory authority for the MILC program expired Sept. 30, 2013.  New legislation must be enacted before the MILC program, or its replacement, can provide assistance. 

Dairy operations can obtain more information on MILC by contacting a local FSA office or search “MILC” at www.fsa.usda.gov.
