President Donald Trump is expected to sign the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement later this week. Mexico has already signed off on the deal, but it still needs to be ratified in Canada. U.S. Dairy Export Council President and CEO Tom Vilsack says Canada’s class seven pricing will be eliminated. “This class seven pricing distorted the export market and distorted the pricing of (milk) powder. We will want to keep an eye on implementation to make sure our Canadian friends don’t substitute something that acts like class seven, but isn’t called class seven.” Vilsack is optimistic that 2020 will be a better year for dairy farmers.
