EU dairy policy

The EU dairy policy aims to regulate milk and dairy product markets to support farmers, ensure fair prices, and maintain product quality. It includes measures like setting production quotas (which have mostly ended), providing financial support, and promoting sustainable practices. The policy seeks to balance supply and demand, prevent market disruptions, and protect consumers. It also encourages innovation and environmental sustainability in the sector. Overall, the goal is to foster a stable, competitive dairy industry that benefits farmers, consumers, and the environment across the EU.
