HARRISBURG, Pa. – Pennsylvania's Department of Agriculture is asking Dean Dairy to delay a decision to stop receiving milk from dozens of farmers, many of which are in Mercer County.
State Secretary of Agriculture Russell Redding sent a letter to Dean Dairy Holdings LLC following the announcement that the company provided termination notices to 42 Pennsylvania dairy farmers, effective May 31, 2018.
Redding is asking Dean Foods to extend the deadline so that those affected have more time to find new customers.
