There will be a quota increase in the dairy sector.
The P5 Boards have approved a one per cent producer saleable quota increase effective November 1.
The P5 Boards have also approved that one additional incentive day be issued per month on a non-cumulative basis from November to March of next year.
For organic shippers in Ontario and Quebec, there will be three incentive days to be issued per month on a non-cumulative basis for milk that is marketed as organic for the months of April 2018 to March 2019.
The decision is intended to ensure P5 milk production continues to fill all current demand, as butter stocks have not reached their target level of 35,000 tonnes.
