Canadian Dairy Commission Tightens Subsidy Quotas
The Canadian Dairy Commission raised maximums for single operators to 14 000 pounds butterfat or 400 000 pounds milk and to 24 500 pounds butterfat or 700 000 pounds milk for multilateral operations. Minimum reallocations now allow transfers down to 1 750 pounds butterfat if the recipient is a registered cream shipper. Conditions limit one registration number and quota per farm, require full farm production under the holder’s name, and restrict fluid milk pool participation.
