Milk Price Tracker

That feels rough.

It's significantly above what commodities are realising at the moment.

If things don't change next arla move will be down and it won't be far away.

That wasn’t the impression we got at the Arla meeting the other night but admittedly things can change

[Scholsey]

Had a talk from dairy market analyst Erik Elgersma at our milk buyer producer meeting and safe to say it didn’t sound overly optimistic short term price wise and medium/long term wasn’t a lot better!

Kite podcast moaning on about the spring flush and how prices will rise in the second half.
mu question is how do we expect prices to
Rise when demand is only slowly recovering but we are producing more milk than last yr?

Got to have spring before we have a spring flush!

Apparently not milk is ahead of last yr now. Perhaps cows milk better inside? Not necessarily more profitable but more milk.

 

[Horn&corn]

The spring got flushed. Most fert is still in the shed and grazing herds stuck in sheds. Milk Price too low to drive production from purchased feed.
Should restrict production for the whole summer as the drought kicks in.

old saying around here, and no doubt elsewhere, 'blackthorn winter', usually get a shite spell then, and its coming out now.

another one, sow spring barley, by day and night, when blackthorns out.

need to clear some grass, before we can get the barley in.

Plenty grass in the field without fert this spring.

often reckon they tell us any old story, to keep the price down

statistics statistics, and damned statistics, they can all be twisted round.

I’m expecting milk to lift once I hit my 1st cut from last year,I’ve fed the worst silo ever all winter.

If they wanted to keep the price down they would be telling us it was short surely.

Feed looks cheap to me I shan't be holding back.

 

[Headless chicken]

They want the plants as full as possible for as cheap as possible. It’s really as simple as that. Lots of money been spent on processing both in the uk and the states lately. States struggling to fill its spare currently.

 

[rusty]

I seem to remember last backend on the kite podcast that they thought milk could be short this spring leading to rapidly rising prices. Prices are better than they were but not by much.

That’s the last thing you need to hear if your on 35ppl and are yet to get caught up with the rest of the processors.
