Households that receive benefits under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) would be most directly affected, as they would receive financial incentives or discounts when purchasing specific dairy products. This could help them afford more nutritious food options, specifically milk, yogurt, and cheese made from cow's milk.
Dairy farmers and the dairy industry could also be affected, as the program aims to increase the purchase and consumption of their products, potentially leading to increased demand. Additionally, state and local government entities, as well as nonprofit organizations, would be affected as they could apply for grants and cooperative agreements to run the incentive projects. Grocery stores and other retailers that process SNAP benefits would also need to adapt their point-of-sale systems to handle these incentives.
