Milk Price Tracker

Unfortunately exiting would increase your price over the next few months by far more than £5 if you had to go to open market..
I think exit at end of contract.

Sorry that's what I meant, they wouldn't have another order once the contract is finished

thats the one advantage you do get with ordering and contracting a custom blend, you know whats going into it, can't wait for the new feeders to go in and then ill switch over to blend only

Unfortunately, the number of binary farms is decreasing...

To the uneducated, what is a “binary farm” ?

Pour unctuous oils of lavender on my head …

Glanbia up 3ppl from 1st January

Still lagging a way behind Arla and unlikely to keep the Wolf from the door but certainly a step in the right direction

And they tell me inflation is “only” 4%

The government, it’s easy to calculate, you just neglect to include anything that’s making it too high like fuel

Fonterra up to 8.70 NZD, 30 cent increase

33p equivalent I've worked out

I wonder what the spring milkers, across the buyers, would average here?

 

[kiwi pom]

Fonterra up to 8.70 NZD, 30 cent increase

That might make some of the competition sweat a bit. I think its Oceania that said they'd pay out more than Fonterra every year to get supply.

 

[Milkcow365]

See muller paying out extra on the Lidl milk just shows how tight the whole supply is getting!

 

[Beef farmer]

Lidl deserve some praise really, it's a great gesture from them, no doubt its needed to keep the supply up.

 

[jackrussell101]

I'm extremely grateful to Lidl, I am one of the 200 directs that signed 40% of my milk at 29p.

With Nitram that I need to buy at £640, it simply wasn't going to stack up. The trouble is I'm reducing cow numbers to be a bit more efficient and make the job easier for my team, but as I do that I have even more proportion of my litres going at 29p

• They are now running 3.6% below the same week last year – equivalent to 1.21 million litres.

Long may it continue

Yep, simple economics.. Only way to get their hands deeper into their pockets is to have the tankers coming into their yards half full.

If we running that far below now I wonder how far behind it will be next year if there is limited amounts of fertiliser on farms.

Not spoke to anybody that’s planning on cutting back yet up here to be honest.

If Arla started recruiting it would sort the milk price out, other buyers know they can lag 3p behind and there's nothing farmers can do about it
