Coronavirus Forces Farmers to Dump Milk

April 7, 2020 By Richard C. Young

Volatile demand from consumers who first hoarded, then avoided grocery stores is forcing farmers to dump milk, reports the Ontario Farmer:

As much as five million litres of milk is being dumped and more will likely follow in the weeks to come as Canada’s dairy industry struggles to match demand with the fickle requirements of a hoarders’ market.

“It’s just a really big unknown for everybody and I think everyone’s doing their best to make sure that we continue to nourish Canadians and Ontario population with dairy products and keep stuff on the shelves,” says Christina Lewis, president of the Ontario Dairy Council.

“This issue that we’re having right now is so far beyond what anyone would have ever imagined,” she said.

“It’s just a really big unknown for everybody and I think everyone’s doing their best to make sure that we continue to nourish Canadians and Ontario population with dairy products and keep stuff on the shelves,” says Christina Lewis, president of the Ontario Dairy Council.

“This issue that we’re having right now is so far beyond what anyone would have ever imagined,” she said.

Keeping store shelves stocked, Lewis said “is not a problem, but it’s sort of balancing the supply with demand and demand is a day-by-day thing,” Lewis said in an Ontario Farmer interview.

Lewis said some processors saw demand spike by as much as 40 per cent during the early days of social distancing.
