# The Dairy Produce Quotas Regulations 1993, Regulation 18: Representative fat content of milk


For the purposes of Article 2(1)(d) of the Commission Regulation (which deals with the representative fat content of milk from certain new producers)—
(a) the breeds of cow which may be considered to produce milk with a higher representative fat content shall be Channel Island, South Devon and breeds with similar characteristics;
(b) the producer’s herd shall, at any time, include one or more such breeds; and
(c) if, by 1st March in any year the producer fails to provide proof that the composition of his herd is in accordance with paragraph (b), and that the milk produced by that herd justifies the allocation to him of a higher representative fat content, he shall lose the right to have such a representative content for that quota year and subsequent quota years.
