HC Deb 24 March 1983 vol 39 cc465-6W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what percentage of milk produced in the European Community is not consumed in the Community.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

It is estimated that Community milk production in 1982 represents 4,113,000 tonnes of butterfat and 9,368,000 tonnes of solids not fat. The equivalent of 14.6 per cent of the butterfat production and 11.7 per cent. of the solids not fat production were exported in 1982 and were thus not consumed in the Community.
