The University of Maryland recently partnered with the Maryland Department of Agriculture, Farm Service Agency, and the Risk Management Agency to host dairy risk management workshops around Maryland. The workshops featured a presentation covering the state of Maryland’s cost-share program to cover the cost of the premium for Dairy Margin Coverage (DMC), how DMC operates to protect dairy producers, and a new crop insurance option, Dairy Revenue Protection (DRP), could be utilized in a dairy’s risk management program. Videos of the presentations are now available.
