IFA dairy chairman urges Dairygold members to approve supply deal
The IFA dairy chairman said Dairygold shareholders owe it to themselves to attend next Thursday’s AGM, to ensure the co-op’s milk supply agreement (MSA) is approved. He is urging Dairygold farmers to attend and speak their minds, and not leave it to others to speak on their behalf on the day.
With global demand for milk growing at 2% per annum in recent years, he is confident Irish dairy farmers will enjoy an era of unprecedented growth post-2015. He also notes that, in any case, the MSA is constructed to respond to any number of global market scenarios.
