    friesland cam 29c
    carbery 27c
    lakekand 26.5c
    Kerry 25c
    Gii 24c

    what order would ye put the ceo's of respective companies id say the above list isnt far off the mark?

    oranua moving out of US surprising move, opening up capital to fund expansion in europe and nigeria, would have though the us was an important premium market for us

    The ceo order would be the reverse, with Siobhan Talbot in the number one position for doing such an excellent job of ignoring the nuisance farmer and keeping the share price high...

    new tax on butter in us and large us output probably causing this.

    wait until this time next year they really will be looking for milk, wonder will they pay better then.

    Well... On say 500,000 litres, assuming the max allocation of 5%,the much lauded fixed milk price, (which isn't costing GII anything as Ornua are its backers?) will deliver a whopping €1000 in a year if that

    Rest assured, that'll protect the bottom line until then.. :rolleyes:

    GDT up 1.8%

    Damp squib, this is a market which doesn't want to be talked up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,433 ✭✭✭Milked out


    Dairygold held at 25.5


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭atlantic mist


    dairy numbers have dropped in nz first time since 2005, thats a nice one for the markets to digest, they cant keep dropping price like opec had to stop somewhere

    nz putting less and less product to gdt month on month trying to find more direct routes to market to provide greater return for farmers, could be a distant memory soon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,814 ✭✭✭✭whelan2


    no sign of milk statements yet on Glanbia connect

    About time they copped on and realised that they get it deliverered to their door for 1/2 what it costs them to produce it themselves!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭atlantic mist


    china are currently paying 51c a litre for November milk its costing that to produce

    they seem happy to pay at that price many still favoring imported produce so they do value the milk

    if the self sufficient idea doesnt work they will just buy farms or processors to keep control even if not producing domestically, nz and oz trying to cool this at present

    Nearly had a small heart attack in centra this evening, saw 85 cent on the shelf, picked up a litre of avonmore milk, went to the till, handed yer man a euro and he says it's €1.35. Yer not serious says I.

    We normally buy 6L for €4 in dunnes! The 85 must have been a half litre.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    85 cent was probably for own brand milk. It's 1.50for a litre of avonmore"pink" milk-slimline in local shop while its 85 cent for 1 litre of aldi's own brand pink milk in aldi. The Dunnes milk is great value

    Is the pink slimline basically just watered down milk? Always wondered that.
