    Guess our milk price in Arrabawn ain't as good as it seems,.a penal 0.64 cent per litre deducted for collection even though most other coops have none.finally dropped though after long struggle from may1.

    I think it might be because the hauliers(with 151 scanias) are all seperate from the co-op. It costs a fair bit to haul milk from Mallow and Galway to Nenagh (and perhaps back to Galway). I notice glanbia's absence from the survey.

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

    Dairygold contract out milk haulage as well. If you have more than 15 collections in a month they'll charge 100 per collection thereafter unless it's suiting the haulier or some other circumstance. Glanbia are GII on the list

    AFAIK the milk from around mallow, especially the pocket West of mallow, is going into North Cork CoOp in Kanturk. The gas thing is that this milk was being collected by dairy gold previously and delivered into Kanturk too !

    Saw on fj website that they cut by .75 cent a litre. Bit far down but there are a few lakeland boys in my area - that's getting close to comfort now.

    Why is there such a push for EU intervention in the milk market to protect dairy farmers from market forces, when no such intervention was pushed for (or allowed last year by competition authority ) and others for beef farmers, in particular last year when prices were well below cost of production. Are EU and Irish Politian's talking out of both sides of their face on these closely related issues? And why are farmer representatives not highlighting this disparity in treatment for two fundamentally-linked farmer groups. Same question applies for tillage lads who had a very rough year last year as well.

    The l'oreal advert comes to mind...
    :).
    Very good question though!
    Maybe dairy isn't able for life without quotas just yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,135 ✭✭✭kowtow


    The idea that intervention would force buyers to buy and cause an early recovery is frightening in its ignorance.

    Quotas are only a after thought when you consider all the other factors, American dairy farmers basically now have a guaranteed price for milk government aided that pays out when milk price on spot market drops below price of production to make up the difference, combined with Europe acting as a puppet for them they have us locked out of Russia aswell, factor in Chinese demand being non existent things are looking very bleak....
    Their's going to have to be a serious cull worldwide of dairy stock/ significant weather events to pull markets back up, if this dosent transpire in 2016 lads will be glad of invention prices at 21 cent to keep a floor under the price

    Bang on.


    This is what the industry has been screaming for. The sooner the price hits the floor the better. With the removal of protection the consolidation of the industry can commence...
