Once the accuracy of the reported information is determined the auditor then can properly assess the minimum value of the producer milk. Any payments found to be inadequate are required to be included in the next month’s payment. The audits of the producer valuation and payment process provide assurance to Pennsylvania dairy farmers that they a being paid properly. |
