Fiscal Detail and Notes
	This legislation updates target prices for each tier used to make payouts through the Dairy Stabilization Program.  It also transfers $830,000 from various Other Special Revenue Funds accounts to the Maine Milk Pool Other Special Revenue Funds account which would decrease the General Fund transfer for dairy stabilization payments by that amount in fiscal year 2012-13.  It would result in a decrease in General Fund revenue of $1,552,403 in fiscal year 2012-13 and a corresponding increase in Other Special Revenue Funds revenue to the Department of Agriculture, Food and Rural Resources.  The bill includes an Other Special Revenue Funds allocation of $2,382,403 in fiscal year 2012-13 in order to make increased payouts through the program.
