    Our milk lorry had to change collection times a week ago to during the day, he said it was because they got a big unexpected spike in milk deliveries, I was talking to him two days ago again and he says supplies are running ahead of what they were expecting again. As mahoney said alot of extra cows calved down.

    Worth throwing an eye on agriland now and again they are now comparing other major world coop milk prices.
    Very interesting
