Wisconsin Farmers Union Canadian Dairy Meeting
Mar 22, 2018

the Wisconsin Farmers Union held a meeting to discuss Canada's dairy market management system and supply system. Vice-Chair of Dairy Farmers of Ontario Murray Sherk explained how Canada uses supply management which yields a greater quota for dairy farmers. President of Dairy Farmers of Ontario Ralph Deitrich discussed the benefits of genomix in raising and maintaining dairy cows. "We're very satisfied with [genomix], but it's not for everybody...but at the end of the day, to make anything to work in supply management, it's controlled production," Deitrich said.
