    Not for me ,never seen a more hungry shower for milk,too many negatives with that praticular crowd one been access to shares and that from what I could gather the bigger supplier with big shares will hold an advantage .nuff said.keeping options open next few months will be interesting in our knick of the woods

    do you think that they need it everyday? to keep liquid milk supplied on the shelf maybe or more for the lorry to be full

    BTW will you be charged for daily collection or what was charged previously?

    MJ, point if info You statement on shares is totally incorrect. I'm not starting a row but you should stick to the facts.

    Access to initial shares fine but after that squiring shares relative to supply could be a long slow process and costly.statement I quoted was general feeling I got.am I wrong in saying him/her with bigger shareholding got more clout

    I've pulled back alot this month. I see January are the last chance to keep superlevy in check.

    Share trading will allow for buying. Preference given to people who are under 2000 shares. For larger share holders limit on amount can be bought at a time. So actually discriminates against larger share holders. Unlike what your rumour would suggest.

    28% of shares held be deceased and in active members, so a shortage it's not

    Yes, it's very important that share holders attend SGM on 5/2 in KK to vote. This is the proposed date. All payments will be to shareholders with MSA only

    2000 shares needed to start so no issue aquiring them,after that it gets a bit tricky unless you've got bucks behind you.

    Milk manager called earlier for me to go to a large meeting of milk producers.
    Seems that the farmers don't want to produce milk for the new baby milk plant.
    SCC here is 400k and it is proposed to drop that limit to 200k....feckin WAR!!

    There are lots and lots of robots in the area and there are huge difficulties staying under 400k SCC, even though the fine for being over is 18cpl !!

    Soooo....the plant is now in place AND it's built under a JV with the Chinese...and the farmers don't want to supply!!
    There is an infinite chasm between Irish and French cultures. Irish farmers embrace opportunities with both arms while the French attitude is "what have the Chinese ever done for us?" FFS.

    why would scc be any different with robot?

    a lot of people are afraid of the Chinese. probably good reason. they have a reputation of not paying for stuff

    It's one of those very well kept secrets Visa...
    I'm in no position to explain why as I don't have 'bots.

    You do not need any more than that. Lots of guys have supplied with much less till now.

    Tbh I can't recall what we got last Jan:(
    This is for .5c on all milk in 14 and 1.8 for 15 supply

    I think the Jan payment was the fixed price topup, open to correction

    Yes provided the CSO shows Ag inflation on main inputs. I'd say its a given


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,392 ✭✭✭✭Timmaay


    5%

    Up to 5.2 this year.

    Yeah,last year was the fixed price top up This year it's a half cent price support for all milk in 2014 paid for by the co-Op and matched by the plc for liquid subject to approval at the SGM
    It was meant to be paid in January, what delayed the sgm?
    Presumably now it will be March

    A half c/l is 2.25c a gal approx,so €2250 per 100,000 gals? Is it paid on over quota milk too?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,722 ✭✭✭✭mahoney_j
