Madison Co. Virginia
I guess the way I'm seeing it is-- Suppose you have those three farms. 100, 700, and 3000 cows. When the farm size gets capped at 700, the large farm splits up into several units. Since they're building anyway, they increase cow numbers to fill all their new barns. Suddenly you now have seven barns shipping milk. 100, 700, 700, 700, 700, 700, and 700 cows respectively. The processor/co-op was willing to deal with the small farm before, but now they're the extreme oddball. They're more likely to be dropped. Everybody else is neatly filling a trailer of milk per day, except for that one farm.
