Dairy industry's getting gutted by private equity firms like Toys R' Us was.

Granted, the dairy industry already destroyed almost all small dairy farms in the US.

We have a 1.4 billion pound cheese surplus too due to overproduction.

I�m serious btw. like milk seems a perfect example of a commodity that will always have a market so how can capitalism manage to gently caress even that up?

They decided to increase supply as milk sales decreased. All the excess went into cheese that sits around in warehouses.

quote:

As milk sales falter and dairy farmers exit the industry, something counterintuitive has been happening: Dairy production is growing. Milk production grew 15% from 2009 to 2018, according to the USDA.
That rise in production can be partially explained by a growing overall demand for dairy products. Still, the domestic milk supply is outstripping demand.
"The underlying cause of this long low-price period is overproduction, plain and simple," said Lloyd. "There haven't been ways to discipline the production, so it's just continued up and up and up and up." Lloyd said that farmers, desperate to make ends meet, are boosting production to generate cash, a situation she describes as "no breaks agriculture."

Other changes in the industry, including retaliatory tariffs from Trump's trade war factored in.

quote:

Last year, the Dairy Farmers of America � the country's largest dairy cooperative � reported annual net sales of $13.6 billion, a $1.1 billion decrease from 2017. DFA pointed to lower average US milk prices.
The dip can be attributed in part to changes the global milk industry.
In 2015, the European Union put an end to milk quotas. Around the same time, Chinese demand for milk weakened and Russia banned imports.
The changes led to a glut in the global milk supply, driving down prices worldwide and putting pressure on the United States, which had a healthy export market.
Farmers are accustomed to the ebb and flow in dairy prices, and while those years of low prices marked a particularly tough cycle, relief started to come in 2018, noted Alan Bjerga, senior vice president of communications at the National Milk Producers Federation, a lobbying group.
Then retaliatory tariffs from Mexico and China kicked in, delivering another blow to the industry.
In a June statement about trade relations with China, the NMPF said that "tariffs erected in 2018 have proven to be a catastrophic blow for the US dairy industry."
"It would have been a long low-price cycle in any case, but it would have been on the long side," Bjerga told CNN Business. "The trade war definitely prolonged it. And that definitely was a problem for farmers who really weren't able to hold out anymore."
