Dairy Industry
The Canadian Dairy Commission supports the industry by developing national and regional policies on dairy production, by detecting fluctuations in demand for dairy products and in milk production, and by coordinating the pooling of milk revenues and market sharing systems. The Canadian dairy industry is governed by a supply management system.
National milk production target for Canada
The Total Quota is the national milk production target for Canada. On behalf of the industry, the Canadian Dairy Commission calculates the Total Quota on a monthly basis, according to a method set by the Canadian Milk Supply Management Committee. This target is expressed in kilograms of butterfat, and is monitored on an ongoing basis and adjusted as needed to reflect variations in supply and demand. The national quota is allocated among regional pools.

The Canadian Milk Supply Management Committee
The Canadian Dairy Commission chairs and supports the Canadian Milk Supply Management Committee (CMSMC) and its secretariat. The Committee serves as the key national body for policy development and discussions respecting the dairy production and processing sectors.
The Committee meets four times yearly to examine the main production, economic and marketing factors affecting the dairy industry, including:
Supply management and the dairy industry
Information on Supply Management and the Dairy Industry
Supply management in the dairy industry
In a supply management system, demand is forecast by means of calculations, and production signals are sent out to producers based on the demand forecasts that are obtained this way.
