Do you get a bonus for being able to take artic or lorry and drag?

Yes

And any time collection mines collected during milking so I have to use my buffer tank

And we probably have one of the lowest volume bonuses.

Yeah but apart from all that, Arla are still unfair!

Needs to be lower

 

[Cows 'n grass]

Needs to be lower

Needs to be based on solids, not litres.(for me anyway)

So mullers left Aberdeen, options look grim like Yew Tree. Tesco supermarket producers dumped aswell. Of course some are left/sorted who how not why?

Perhaps those with excellent access and flexible collection times should get a large premium instead of it being volume volume volume?

Does it matter if the truck has to drive 15 miles and an hour around to collect 5 farms instead of 5 hour round trip to collect one large one.....and pay them a volume bonus?

I'm surprised they don't make access with the big gear compulsory (I know they wouldn't get down some roads) its probably coming though.
Flexible pick up times would be good. Fonterra got them selves in a load of trouble allowing their suppliers to pick their own pick up windows, cost them millions more.

Amazing how much quicker a single suck is than lots of small pick ups though, and that's here with good road access, you'd be seriously limited there as to how many loads you can do a day I would think.
Might be different now but the biggest problem I saw was how slow they pump the milk on.

99% of farms that can get an artic to the entrance of the farm would have access but the actual Public roads To the farms are normally the main issue, so not the farmers fault.

Arla only pay artic access bonus if they can drive in and out. No backing/turning on the road.

How much is the artic bonus?
