The US is a major market in the region and is also one of the leading exporters of dairy products. Margin Protection Program for Dairy by USDA is incentivising production even with declining sales, resulting in a growing milk oversupply. Producers are converting the excess milk to items like milk powder and butter, which have a longer shelf life than liquid milk. While a new trade deal with Canada gives the US 3.6% tariff-free access to Canada’s dairy market, it might prove detrimental to the growing dairy market in Canada as it scraps the Class 7 scheme which regulated the prices of certain dairy products like skimmed milk powder. The Canadian dairy industry is one of the leading agricultural sectors in the country and contributes significantly to the country’s GDP.
