Welcome to the BC Dairy, Egg and Poultry Industries (BCDEPI) website. Here you will find information about British Columbia’s five supply-managed agriculture industries – dairy, chicken, turkey, table eggs and broiler- hatch eggs – as well as the economic and social contribution they make to communities throughout the province.
Also, you can learn about supply management, a system where centralized boards ensure that production levels meet consumer demand for food products like milk, eggs and poultry. Some of the benefits of supply management include impeccable food safety standards, stable food prices for consumers, and a fair return for farmers. All of these benefits are made possible without government subsidies.
