Milk Price Tracker

[Farmer Keith]

Perhaps we need to calm down just a little, yes no price cut is good news but those of us lucky enough to be supplying Arla would do well to remember we’re miles ahead of the field and we’ve had a very kind pandemic indeed. 35p down to 34p is a long way off fighting away on 20p.

 

[Sid]

Maybe it will slow down arla members urge to produce more on the back of a brilliant milk price ?

The price cut has nothing to do with supply but rising costs in the chain.

3% price drop

35p would lead to either way too much milk or infrastructure spending that would make 40p necessary.

Sad but tue

Dairy farmers thought process has in the past been,
30ppl more milk to cash in
20ppl more milk to keep income up

Sustainable milk price is what is needed not a high one.

My milk price atm is not sustainable.

What % of the UK milk prices are? 50%?

 

[Fools Gold]

35p would lead to either way too much milk or infrastructure spending that would make 40p necessary.

So how do we maintain any margin with all costs rocketing? 35p will soon be the new 30p, for many producers 30p is still a distant dream!

Do things differently?

Agreed, but its always been thus

Don't disagree with this, but ultimately inflation will catch up with all of us

Spring block calving?

Stainless can't cope!

We haven’t really had any inflation for a decade. Surely ours businesses should be more resistant now because of that ?

Of course not. But there isn’t a business alive that can’t improve. To think otherwise is pure arrogance.

Depends on the level of inflation, all this fantasy money thats been handed out over the last 18mnths will have a fair effect

 

[Fools Gold]

Of course not. But there isn’t a business alive that can’t improve. To think otherwise is pure arrogance.

All business can improve and find some efficiency’s but ultimately you can’t hold back the tide.

 

[cattow]

Blaming lack of lorries

Also you should be trying to improve regardless of input costs they just act a serious motivation.

Our maccys generally has a broken shake machine anyway

Labour, contract, fuel, feed, chems, land, meds, holidays?
