PMO regulates which grade of milk?

• A. Grade B only
• B. Grade A only
• C. All milk grades
• D. Grade A and Grade B

Answer: (B)

PMO sets the sanitary standards for milk used in processing and manufacturing. The grade designated for manufacturing uses—Grade B—is regulated under the PMO to ensure milk going into dairy products like cheeses and other processed goods is properly pasteurized and tested for contaminants. This focus helps guarantee the safety of finished products that come from Grade B milk. Grade A, in contrast, is the grade tied to fluid, consumer-grade milk and is governed by its own regulatory framework, so the PMO’s emphasis here is on Grade B.
