This analysis provides the quantitative results of eliminating certain aspects of current federal dairy policies and replacing them with the “Foundation for the Future” (FFTF) program. The analysis of the FFTF program is made relative to the FAPRI March 2010 baseline that is summarized at: http://www.fapri.missouri.edu /outreach/publications/2010/FAPRIMU_Report01_10.pdf. There are four major policy changes considered in this analysis: 1) Elimination of the Dairy Product Price Support Program (DPPSP) 2) Elimination of the Milk Income Loss Contract (MILC) program 3) Introduction of the Dairy Producer Margin Protection Program (DPMPP) 4) Introduction of the Dairy Market Stabilization Program (DMSP) The analysis does not incorporate the changes to the federal order system under consideration in the FFTF program.
