You mean to say that our various processors don't have the best interests of us, as primary producers, at heart? Do you think they are looking to feather their own nests at our expense? I'm shocked!!Convince me.
The processors aim to make a profit.
Your on a fixed price for x percent of supply.
Overall Price drops so they balance books by giving a lower non contracted price.
Are you any better off?

Sounds like more stick than carrotProbably true to a certain extent, but if you as an individual haven't signed up for the fixed price deal you'll end up with 100% of your milk at the lower price.
Which is why as a cooperative it shouldn't be optional. If df think its good for their business to fix forward then a % of every members milk should be fixed and the best possible price delivered to everyone.Probably true to a certain extent, but if you as an individual haven't signed up for the fixed price deal you'll end up with 100% of your milk at the lower price.

I haven’t and haven’t lost sleep over it . As a small producer the volumes are nothing to make you want to legally promise to produce milk for another 3 years at those quantities in those months.Probably true to a certain extent, but if you as an individual haven't signed up for the fixed price deal you'll end up with 100% of your milk at the lower price.
