so much so that recent news reports that
dairy farmers are accusing Dean Foods
of monopolizing raw milk production

Dean Foods stock price dropped significantly

anyone who buys milk most likely has realized that
the retail price of milk has increased since that last earnings report,

the company has expressed concern about the inflationary pressure;
