...world's largest milk producer. Dairy products account for about one-sixth of all E.U. farm produce by value and about 8% of all agriculture exports. But European milk prices have plummeted 40% over the past six months, to around €0.25 ($0.36) per liter, less than the cost of production, according to Copa-Cogeca, a European farmers' association.

Like baseball parks and basketball-hockey arenas, football stadiums have for decades been evolving into places where an increasing amount of the real estate is devoted to premium-priced seating. In that department, Cowboys Stadium is the new frontier. About a third of the base seating capacity of 73,000 consists of suites - 325 of them - and high-priced "club seats" with access to various bar-lounges at escalating levels of luxury. Those seats require that you first buy a 30-year license, which costs between...
