VT Edition: Beth Kennett & Ralph McNall on today's dairy economy

Tuesday May 13, 2008
Jane Lindholm

Farmers have been getting more money for their milk over the past year, but high fuel prices and other factors have doubled the cost of production in many cases. Beth Kennett runs Liberty Hill Farm in Rochester with her husband and two sons, and Ralph McNall milks Holsteins at Two Rivers Farm in Fairfax and is president of the St. Albans Co-op. They speak with VPR's Jane Lindholm about how Vermont's dairy farms are faring in today's economy.
