The Domestic Seasonality Program for butter allows the industry to continue to offer a reliable supply of dairy products despite seasonal fluctuations in supply and demand. The industry has mandated the CDC to operate these programs in co-operation with the private sector. Generally, the CDC buys and stores butter in the spring and summer and sells it back to processors in the fall, when there is greater seasonal demand for dairy products. These purchases and sales are transacted at the support price.
