Dairy Export Incentive Program

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Dairy Export Incentive Program (DEIP) is a program that offers subsidies to exporters of U.S. dairy products to help them compete with other nations. USDA pays cash to exporters as bonuses to help them sell certain U.S. dairy products at prices below the exporter’s cost of acquiring them. The program was originally authorized by the

Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture
.

The

2002 farm bill
(P.L. 107-171) extended the program through 2007.
