When prices are updated, the milk price adjustment formula, as well as various factors relative to markets outside Canada, are applied to the price of milk in the different classes.

The Harmonized Milk Classification System (HMCS) has five classifications of milk: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, Class, 4, Class 5. Each class of milk is further broken down into two to five subcategories. These different classifications are used by Provincial Marketing Boards and/or Provincial Regulatory Agencies to bill milk components.
