Dairy Demand
Demand and consumption have somewhat different meanings. Careless
substitution of these terms for each other is common and causes
much confusion. Demand refers to the amounts of a product sold at
particular prices. Selling more of a product at the same
price is an increase in demand for that product; selling more at
a lower price may or may not be an increase in demand for
that product. In fact, selling more at a lower price might represent
a decrease in demand, if it takes a larger-than-normal price decline
to interest buyers in taking a little more.
