Canada: Dairy and Products Annual
Growth in Canadian production of milk, cheese, butter and skim milk powder will continue to slow down in 2019, as supply and demand for butterfat stabilize. Imports of European cheese under the CETA TRQ are expected to pick up pace in 2019, following the first full year of implementation, in which the quota was underfilled. FAS/Ottawa anticipates Canadian skim milk powder exports will set a new record in 2019, as production remains high and processors continue to unwind stocks.
