      abstract = {With the 2008 EU’s CAP reform the governance of the EU’s  dairy sector changes. This paper focuses on governance  structures between dairy farms and milk processors. To get  insight in regional differences within the EU, a literature  research and interviews are conducted in three case study  areas, namely: the Netherlands, Bulgaria and France.  Results show that in these countries both farmers and  processors have incentives to form hybrid governance  structures with a higher level of control compared to the  current structures. Most dairy cooperatives have no  additional advantage in managing milk quality and milk  supply compared to investor owned firms. Chain integration  could go a step further in Bulgaria compared to the  Netherlands and France given the institutional environment  that is not expected to guarantee milk quality and the  focus on the export of milk.},
