Abstract
The Milk Marketing Boards were established in 1933 in order to ensure a regular collection of milk from farmers and a reliable delivery of milk to customers. They perfected a distribution system which proved its worth in the Second World War by ensuring an essential supply of milk under difficult circumstances. In 1993, the Government proposed that the English Milk Marketing Board should become a voluntary co‐operative with the title Milk Marque. This would make its own arrangements for the collection of milk from farmers and would compete with dairy companies such as Nestle and Northern Foods as farmers would be able to make their own arrangements over milk collection and milk products. The new system was to be in place by 1 April. Because of objections, any decisions have been postponed until 1 October or beyond.
