Personally I'd have zero problems with zero market supports from glanbia as such, take the best possible milk price at all times, I'll manage my own price volatility grand considering I'm fairly lowly borrowed. Just like all fixed price or insurance schemes, there is a fee to pay for it in some form or other.

Never know the people who specialise in confusion will turn up to stir the pot. Btw the .5c if passed will make up for price drop 100%. Be warned some darker days in store for Q1.

Cheese 2300/ tonne with 10k litres to make a tonne. You can see where it's going from that alone. Luckily volumes are small ATM. Fixed price scheme looking like a good move now. Only way to stop fall is Aid to private storage. This would create a floor and buyers will come back in to remove surplus

Either way if it comes in the spring as opposed to Dec it would be more helpful for most lads then in both a cash flow and tax point of view. Any thoughts on next year's price do ye think it will hold at 30 or drop below it? The Europeans are predicting further drops I think

The herd has done the same milksolids per cow in 2014 to date as in 2013 even though it has been on OAD since Aug 1st due to quota. Cell count is 225,000. Milk yield is 7.67 litres/cow on OAD. Current milk test is 5.48% fat and 5.19% protein, lactose of 4.37% TBC of 14,000. This is 0.83 kgs of milksolids per cow per day. We are on quota still even with the OAD milking and we are continually monitoring our supplies.

Maybe a bit of credit where it's deserved, a lot of guys around here really wanted to see them fail in shinagh, great to see them prove the doubters wrong.
