[QUOTE="Tarw Coch, post: 7725803, member: 1008"] As a dairy farmer I’d say a minimum of a penny a litre. A penny a litre over cost of production that is, current milk price is 28ppl, consultancy firms who publish costs of production have been putting the cost of producing a litre of milk in the low 30’s for some time now, which is where the all aligned contracts that work on a COP basis are, and that’s before any of the recent price rises in commodities such as feed and fertilers filter through. Would anyone from RT like to justify why they think it’s acceptable that farmers get paid below the cost of production for meeting their standards, a principle which should apply to all sectors.
