WCNY/ Reith Interview with Bradd Vickers, Neil Rejman on Governor
Andrew Cuomo's “Yogurt Summit”.
http://www.wcny.org/reith/embed/2268413160
With the soaring popularity of Greek yogurt
manufacturers here in Central New York, it
seems only natural that NY dairy farmers would share in the success. But
the
complicated structures of federally mandated milk pricing, combined with
the state’s
worst drought and a lingering recession is making everyday dairy
business very
challenging. The Governor's meeting with some of the
region’s top
industry experts in his first "Yogurt Summit" took place last
week. However, some of
the
farmers we spoke to are skeptical that the State will truly be able to help many of
the
struggling Farmers
in NY.
