The Pennsylvania Milk Marketing Board wants to study what may happen if the state’s minimum milk pricing structure is removed. The idea comes as consumers in the state are forced to pay some of the highest milk prices in the country even though PA is sixth in the nation for milk production. According to the Milk Marketing Board, just under 20 percent of the retail cost of milk goes to the store; just over 30 percent goes to the processor and just half of the cost goes to the producer. There are more than five-thousand dairies in Pennsylvania.
