DFC's Quarterly Skim

Welcome to the latest edition of Dairy Farmers of Canada’s (DFC) Quarterly Skim, where we take a glimpse into what is happening in the marketplace and provide insight into what to expect in the upcoming months. Our goal? To help you keep tabs on how the marketplace for dairy products 
is evolving.

In this edition for the second quarter of 2025, we look at global dairy commodity prices; Canada-U.S. comparison of dairy farms by size, structure and milk distribution; provide an update on trade, examining the CUSMA export threshold and key dairy imports in the first half of 2025 under Canada’s international trade agreements for the dairy year 2024/25, and we analyze dairy sales in the Canadian market (retail, food service, and further processing).
