- Now to what may be some very bad news for some Wisconsin
dairy farmers.
Dairy processor Grassland Dairy's Greenwood plant notified
75 Wisconsin farmers this week that it will cancel their milk
contracts within the next 30 days.
That's because of a trade dispute surrounding
ultrafiltered milk, which is used to make cheese and until
recently was a big U.S.
export to Canada duty-free.
But blowback from Canadian farmers caused some provinces to
implement a tariff on imports of that U.S. product.
Grassland losing Canadian business has forced it to halt
buying milk from dozens of Wisconsin farmers.
