Tens of thousands of gallons of milk dumped.
Why?
Due to the drop of milk prices versus the increase in packaging and transportation, some Vermont farmers
are simply dumping their excess into fertilizer pits.
This in America, where 50 million people are food insecure.
The last time this happened – and it has happened before – was during the Great Depression.
