Agricultural Economic Report No. 462 Abstract Cheese prices, key market indicators for the entire dairy industry, rose rapidly in the seventies because of rising demand for cheese. Cheese prices nationwide follow those on the National Cheese Exchange, which itself handles less than 1 percent of total U.S. cheese production. Retailers usually give cheese the highest profit margin of all dairy products; since 1973, retail cheese prices have risen more rapidly than whole- sale prices. Dairy farmers receive about 48 cents for the milk used in $1 worth of cheese at the retail level; processing, packaging, and marketing take the other 52 cents.

Cheese doubled in price in the seventies and became the prime manufactured dairy product, utilizing 25 percent of all milk. The price paid by cheese manufac- turers for milk is a major determinant, along with Federal marketing orders and sup- port prices, of the fluid milk price. Increased prices for all dairy products were largely a result of the rising demand for cheese, whose per capita consumption more than doubled between 1950 and 1979. Cheese prices throughout most of the Nation and at all marketing levels are based on the prices established at the National Cheese Exchange in Green Bay, Wis. Since the volume of cheese handled on the Exchange has never been more than 1 percent of total U.S. cheese production, national cheese prices are based on a thin market—one with few transactions. Weekly prices on the Exchange between 1975 and 1979 cor- related very strongly (at least 99 percent statistical correlation) with wholesale prices in Chicago and New York and just a little less strongly with wholesale prices in San Francisco. Price changes between 1975 and 1979 on the Exchange in one week were usually followed the next week by similar price changes at Wisconsin assembling points and wholesale markets across the country. The farm-retail price spread for cheese increased slowly from 1950 through 1973, after which it sharply widened, as retail prices rose more rapidly than wholesale prices. The total price spread, in constant dollars, increased only a little and the total spread as a percentage of retail price remained fairly constant. Processing, pack- aging, and transportation account for more than half of the retail cheese price, so for every dollar spent on cheese at the retail level, the dairy farmer receives about 48 cents for the milk. Most retailers give cheese the highest profit margin of all their dairy products. Cheese Pricing American cheese, nearly three-fourths of which is Ched- dar, accounted for almost 60 percent of 1979 total cheese Harold W. Lough production. Italian-type cheeses include the varieties mozr Agricultural Economist zarella, ricotta, provolone, Parmesan, and Romano. Italian cheese, over two-thirds of which is mozzarella, accounted for 25 percent of total U.S. cheese production in 1979. Swiss cheese production was 6 percent of the total. The primary other varieties are cream, Neufchatel. blue, brick, Limburger, and Muenster (15).

  • The Complete Book of Cheese by Robert Carlton Brown
    THE COMPLETE BOOK OF CHEESE BY ROBERT CARLTON BROWN Chapter One I Remember Cheese Cheese market day in a town in the north of Holland. All the cheese- fanciers are out, thumping the cannon-ball Edams and the millstone Goudas with their bare red knuckles, plugging in with a hollow steel tool for samples. In Holland the business of judging a crumb of cheese has been taken with great seriousness for centuries. The abracadabra is comparable to that of the wine-taster or tea-taster. These Edamers have the trained ear of music-masters and, merely by knuckle-rapping, can tell down to an air pocket left by a gas bubble just how mature the interior is. The connoisseurs use gingerbread as a mouth-freshener; and I, too, that sunny day among the Edams, kept my gingerbread handy and made my way from one fine cheese to another, trying out generous plugs from the heaped cannon balls that looked like the ammunition dump at Antietam. I remember another market day, this time in Lucerne. All morning I stocked up on good Schweizerkäse and better Gruyère. For lunch I had cheese salad. All around me the farmers were rolling two- hundred-pound Emmentalers, bigger than oxcart wheels. I sat in a little café, absorbing cheese and cheese lore in equal quantities. I learned that a prize cheese must be chock-full of equal-sized eyes, the gas holes produced during fermentation. They must glisten like polished bar glass. The cheese itself must be of a light, lemonish yellow. Its flavor must be nutlike.

    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does
