Data and Analysis
FAS/Canada projects modest milk production growth in 2026, driven by a slight increase in requirements for industrial milk, and steady consumption of fluid milk. Production of cheese and butter is also forecast to increase modestly in 2026, in the face of adequate stocks, and solid demand.
The Canadian cattle herd is forecast to enter the consolidation phase in 2026. Heifer retention practices in 2025 and a slight increase to the breeding herd to begin 2026 will support a slightly larger calf crop.
Chicken meat production is forecast one percent higher in 2026, based on stable demand, adequate domestic supply, and steady imports.
