(b) The production quotas established in subsection (a) do not guarantee that all of the milk produced thereunder shall be utilized as class I in the Honolulu milk shed. The established quota may be considered as a quantity measure representing a producer's share of the estimated annual class I requirements of the market. Each month the total class I usage in the market shall be allocated on a pro rata basis to all quota holders and payment to them shall be determined accordingly. It shall be recognized that the class I requirements of the market vary from day to day and from one season of the year to another. Milk production is also subject to daily and seasonal variation. Producers cannot adjust their production to meet day to day changes in demand but they can make adjustments in their production pattern to compensate for seasonal changes. Producers shall be aware of changes in demand and adjust their production practices to maximize their operating income.[Eff 7/16/80; am and comp 12/1/85; am and comp 5/1/87; am 4/1/89] (Auth: HRS § 157-13) (Imp: HRS §157.31)
