Answer 1

Answer:

Stimulating additional demand for milk , restricting the supply of milk .

Explanation:

To equalize supply and demand the equilibrium price has to be raised to the price floor level . So that equilibrium price becomes equal to price floor and demand supply is equalized , surplus is removed. This can be done by either increasing demand for milk or by decreasing supply of milk . Either way the equilibrium price is raised in the market , by shifting the demand curve right or by shifting the supply curve left .
