I am located in Southwest Virginia and have seen in recent years many of our local small to medium sized dairy farms go under due to large coorporations pricing them out of their market. Large farms/coorporations which have a larger market and therefore increased resources at their disposal will likely be able to adapt to the proposed changes. Small and medium dairy farms will not be able to withstand increased cost due to new regulations as well as fight to keep their milk prices affordable to in the market. They are essentially in the middle of a fight they cannot win.  I will be important to not pass these new regulations and help preserve the small and medium sized dairy farms. 

Thank you for your consideration,

Parker Mabe
