On Tuesday, January 17, 2023, from 12 noon – 1pm (ET), Penn State Law’s Center for Agricultural and Shale Law will be conducting the latest installment in its Quarterly Dairy Legal Webinar series. In addition to a round-up of quarterly legal developments, the focus topic will be the Interstate Regulation of Milk Production and Processing: An Overview of the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance and Interstate Milk Shippers Program. The federal government’s current role in the creation and maintenance of a federal milk pricing system is recognized. The historical state-by-state regulation of milk production and processing as a food safety function of government is sometimes said to be historically “left to the states.” However, the reality is much more complex. Learn the nuts and bolts of how this most perishable of agricultural commodities has been freely flowing across state lines through a combination of federal and state regulatory authority and a large amount of voluntary industry contribution and compliance.

1 hour of substantive CLE credit is available for Pennsylvania licensed attorneys at no charge.
