Connecticut lawmakers have approved a financial safety net for dairy farms who have seen many problems since dairy prices have dropped.
The General Assembly passed a grant program to help dairy farmers cover the gap between the cost of supplies and the lower amount the U.S. government allows them to charge.
The money will come from the additional $10 fee people must pay to record local land records. Governor M. Jodi Rell fully supports the program.
Connecticut’s 150 dairy farms are greatly struggling through the economic crisis.
