It is the policy of Congress to assure a stabilized annual production of adequate supplies of milk and dairy products; to promote the increased use of these essential foods; to improve the domestic source of supply of milk and butterfat by encouraging dairy farmers to develop efficient production units consisting of high-grade, disease-free cattle and modern sanitary equipment; and to stabilize the economy of dairy farmers at a level which will provide a fair return for their labor and investment when compared with the cost of things that farmers buy.","path":["Title 7—AGRICULTURE","CHAPTER 35A—PRICE SUPPORT OF AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES"],"source_url":"https://uscode.house.gov/download/releasepoints/us/pl/119/103/xml_usc07@119-103.zip","current_through":"Public Law 119-103 (09/02/2026)","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-10T05:55:54Z","sha256":"f15e418836f98d038501a934b8489405246c8bf54441b81bb714ef436b35bbed","source_id":"us","stale":false,"prev":"us/7-u.s.c.-1446a-1","next":"us/7-u.s.c.-1446c"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
