First milk 26.2, 3.94 fat 3.19 protein 24 bacto 164 cell count. +.42 seasonality

Good litres. Just shocked what it’d be without the .42 seasonality. Either way they’ll need to lift it a bit with 30 ppl round the corner.

little bird says he'll be up 1.2ppl in July

And our decent volume and the .5 production bonus. There's a lot of poor first milk prices in the country, same with arla when you don't tick the boxes

Yeah for sure. Maximising your contract. I’m just sub 90,000ltrs last month bonuses worth 2.09ppl then 2% for both bacto and scc

A question for those with far more knowledge than me. Why are dairy markets firming when North America has such a big surplus to export ?

Know what you mean, makes me uneasy, everybody talking the price up, when i can't see the fundamentals stacking up

To my knowledge ( and I maybe very wrong) there is a low supply on fats and proteins, high litres ain't what makes the money in today's markets and the majority of American farmers are white water.
Just my opinion tho

 

[upnortheast]

Had some Americans here at the weekend, complaining about their price. Think the conversion was circa 17p. Seems the Gov controls the price, not clear how

 

[sidjon]

Another drop, butter was still rising, NZ spring don't look very flash at the minute seems very wet and mate here today from NZ said production looks very likely to be lower from wet winter and knock on events from M.bolvis.

@runny egg It would be far better for you to show the milk buyers the weather forecast, that will have the biggest effect on prices !!
Not them trying to move it down by BULL....

I really don’t think any Milk buyers are taking any notice of what I put out, indeed they would have seen that direct from MP. Personally I wouldn’t worry as they also
know that whilst Milk is up year on year so far, the forecasted output for the year is down yoy - but as requested.

The way cull cow's are selling it's no wonder milk out put is down .

The way grass is growing, there will be even less milk and even more cull cows in the next month

 

[Martyn]

Iv just booked a wodge of high scc cows in to st merryn. With way things are heading less cows will probly produce same amout of milk of the paddocks!

 

[celtis man]

It could be a interesting time going forward with lack of good grazing and a shortfall in forage and fairly high cull values, arla might start to wish they had not cut the price in the spring.

 

[lazy farmer]

Cows normally milk well in a drought.
