In an effort to support the price of raw milk and dairy products, some dairy farmers advocate

Question:

In an effort to “support” the price of raw milk and dairy products, some dairy farmers advocate a cash subsidy for every cow that is left unused. They argue that the subsidy increases the cost of dairy farming, reduces supply, and increases the price of competitor’s dairy products. Critics argue that because the subsidy is a payment to dairy farmers, it will reduce costs and lead to lower prices. Which argument is correct? Explain.
