It only take one litre more than required.I could be proven wrong but last time milk was at 50ppl the taps weren't really turned on.whats changed now for you to fear a milk price of 42ppl resulting in the foot to the floor.
People talk about dairy farmers becoming resilient to volatility. I think there is a risk we have become to resilient. When the milk price is 15ppl behind 12 months ago we still produce exactly the same milk. 36 ppl hasn't changed how my model works this winter and 44p won't change what I do with my cows next winter.
The real risk is that the milk price allows investment for expansion. I don't think 42ppl does that and on most farm the first investment required is slurry to simply allow the farm to stay the size it is.
