The Dairy Farmers of Nova Scotia organization was created through legislation enacted in 2001, and replaces the former Nova Scotia Dairy Commission. Dairy Farmers of Nova Scotia provides a regulatory and administrative service to Nova Scotia's dairy producers. Working in cooperation with Natural Products Marketing Council, DFNS licenses producers and milk transporters, sets the farm price for milk, administers the production quota system which is a cornerstone of the supply management system, and represents the province's producers on the committees administering the National Milk Marketing Plan and two interprovincial milk pools. 3, record 1, English, - Dairy%20Farmers%20of%20Nova%20Scotia
