Navigating the Future
Canadian Dairy Industry
Al Mussell
Initial Observations
Evolution in milk supply management continues, at an
accelerated pace, with greater urgency and
contemplation of change
The Ingredient Strategy signals prospect of deeper
changes, and true significance of milk protein
surpluses, imports
Credible threats associated with trade agreements
exacerbate these
A need for creative thinking on the future of the dairy
industry
Our Situation
Profitable farms for efficient producers
Profitable processors, investing elsewhere
In aggregate, a mature market
Worsening dairy trade balance
Export restraints
New and pending trade agreements
Sobering challenges

Processors
Consolidated, highly competitive processors, operating at national or
regional in scale (some multinational)
Confronted by highly concentrated retail/food service environment;
increasingly assertive in dealing with suppliers
Rapidly shifting dairy manufacturing technology
Increasingly, Canadian dairy processors investing capital elsewhere,
rather than in Canada
Dairy Markets
Mature market
But, exceptional growth in segments; absolute decline in others
Proliferation of brands, and products
Increasing interest in linkages among production, processing, and
product as elements of marketing
Increasing pressure and presence of imports

Dairy Ingredients Strategy
Purpose- recover markets from imported MPC and MPI’s, encourage
processing investment
Elements:
World pricing on SNF in
Class 4
Protection of revenues
in other classes
New regulation to
identify product origin
Phase out of CDC
surplus removals
Other aspects to be developed, such as new price mechanism for
Classes 1 to 3, allocation, growth allowance
Non-Fat Milk Solids Trap
Butterfat quota system, with SNF in fixed
proportion
Structural surplus of skim
Increasing imports of SNF products; expected to
increase further still
Capacity at limit to process SNF
Hard caps on dairy exports

Threats
Price spread between Class 4(m) and other pricing is financed by
producers
Left alone, costs of diversion may become increasingly onerous,
few options to mitigate
US has free access to Canada on MPC/MPI, also EU when CETA
comes into force
Significant developments in TPP
US-Japan
TPA for President Obama
Prospect of major pressure on Canada in SM products
TPP- Potential Implications
With Japan onside with US (apparently), door is open to
deal Canada out
Possible TPP deal spring 2015
SM-5 have no friends left at home
Expect requests for large increases in dairy market
access (TRQ’s or tariffs) for TPP countries
Phase-ins shorter now- 5 years (?)
Potential Gloomy Scenario
Increased imports/decreased protection
Capped exports
Shrinking dairy industry
Lower milk prices
Lower quota values
Navigating a Better Course:
Juggling Act
Must, simultaneously:
Accommodate
those
disadvantaged
by imports
Get out from
under export
caps
Create a
growth
environment
for processors
Conclusion
Today’s situation could come to a head quickly
Dairy industry leaders, governments face
difficult environment for dairy policy
Farmers may be asked to make sacrifices to
adjust; need to understand the context for this
Conclusion
Should not
simply accept
a future with a
shrinking dairy
industry
Delicate path
forward
• Coordinated with processors
• More export focused,
understanding risks
• Pricing closely oriented with
world prices
• Lower quota values
• Reasonable accommodation for
those disadvantaged
Just scratching
the surface
• Much more
creativity,
analysis required
