The general court finds that many New Hampshire permitted or licensed milk producers have suffered significant financial loss as a result of diminished crops due to the drought during 2016. Such losses have been compounded as a result of several years of unreasonably low federally-established milk prices. As a result of those factors, several permitted or licensed milk producers have ceased milk production. These farms enhance our natural landscape through their pastures, forests, and agricultural structures, from which our citizens derive great pleasure and to which so many of our tourists are attracted. Also locally-produced milk is important to the state's ability to feed itself and the farms on which milk is produced help maintain vital agricultural services in our communities. 2 New Subdivision; New Hampshire Dairy Producer Drought Relief Program. Amend RSA 184 by inserting after section 111 the following new subdivision: New Hampshire Dairy Producer Drought Relief Program 184:112 Definitions. In this subdivision: I. \"Department\" means the department of agriculture, markets, and food. II. \"Forages\" means hay, haylage, silage, and pasture.

The reduced amount shall then be distributed accordingly. V. Any unexpended funds, after final distribution, shall be returned to the general fund. VI. Should a producer cease to be a producer for any reason on or before December 31, 2020, the producer shall reimburse the state the entire amount paid to the producer under this program.
