Analysis of supply and demand of Japanese dairy products market
According to the data published on the official website of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan, the total domestic raw milk production in Japan in 2020 is 43 million tons, of which Hokkaido’s production is 16 million tons, accounting for about 45% of the tot.
Of the 43 million tons of raw milk, 403 tons were sold as drinking fresh milk, and 90% of the raw milk produced in other prefectures other than Hokkaido was processed into drinking fresh milk to avoid long-distance transportation of fresh mi.
The remaining 3 million tons of milk mainly produced in Hokkaido are mainly processed into dairy products such as cream, butter and skimmed milk powd.

The remaining 3 million tons of milk mainly produced in Hokkaido are mainly processed into dairy products such as cream, butter and skimmed milk powd.
In fiscal 2020, Japan also imported 99 million tons of dairy produc.
Among them, about 700,000 tons of skimmed milk powder, butter, whey and other products are planned to be imported in the form of national tra.
Among the rest of the import liberalization varieties, 68 million tons of cheese and 600,000 tons of other types of dairy produc.

Among the rest of the import liberalization varieties, 68 million tons of cheese and 600,000 tons of other types of dairy produc.
From the above data, it can be seen that all drinking milk in Japan uses milk produced in the country and does not import drinking fresh mi.
The milk produced in Hokkaido acts as a regulating val.
When the demand for drinking fresh milk increases, it is processed into drinking fresh milk for sale; when the demand for drinking fresh milk decreases, it is converted into dairy raw materials to stabilize the supply and demand balance of raw mi.

Compared with imported products, Japanese-made dairy products such as skimmed milk powder and butter have no significant difference in quality, and the production cost is higher than the import pri.
In order to balance raw milk supply and demand and stabilize raw milk production, the Japanese government pays compensation for domestically produced milk used as a raw material for dairy products to protect dairy farmers from loss.
At the same time, for the bulk dairy products that are in high demand and can be stored for a long time, such as skimmed milk powder and butter, the state plans to import them, and plans to adjust the import quantity and import timing to reduce the impact on the dairy industry in Jap.
The main importers of bulk dairy products are New Zealand, Australia, the United States and EU member stat.

Conclusion: Although Japan has loosened the import restrictions on dairy products and can import dairy products freely in principle, in order to protect the Japanese dairy industry, it has adopted a number of measures, such as the control of the import of bulk dairy products by the state, and the application of high tariffs for liberalized varieti.
To sum up, there is little room for exporting dairy products to Japan, but liberalized varieties such as ice cream can be tried to export, and the Japanese market demand should be fully considered before exporting to determine export varieti.
