This section requires studies of possible changes to Federal milk policy and fluid-milk identity standards. The Secretary must report both studies to Congress within 1 year.
(a) The Secretary* must study the effects of (1) ending all Federal milk price-support and supply-management programs and (2) Congress consenting to cooperative State* efforts to manage milk prices and supply. (b) The Secretary must study the effects of requiring a minimum protein content in the standard of identity for fluid milk that matches the average nonfat-solids content of United States cow's milk. (c) Within 1 year after May 13, 2002, the Secretary must report the study results to the House Agriculture Committee and the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee.
The Secretary* of Agriculture shall conduct a study of the effects of—
terminating all Federal programs relating to price support and supply management for milk; and
granting the consent of Congress to cooperative efforts by States to manage milk prices and supply.
The Secretary shall conduct a study of the effects of including in the standard of identity for fluid milk a required minimum protein content that is commensurate with the average nonfat solids content of bovine milk produced in the United States.
Not later than 1 year after May 13, 2002, the Secretary shall submit to the Committee on Agriculture of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry of the Senate a report describing the results of the studies required by this section.
