EU and international prices weakened subsequently, but seem to have stabilised again. Meanwhile, Northern Ireland’s monthly United Dairy Farmers milk auction set average prices for September at 29.53ppl, an all-time record for the month, 22% ahead of the price 12 months previously.
LTO international milk price records showed the average July milk price for deliveries to 17 of the EU’s top processors at €35.58 per 100kg of standard milk, pushing the July 2008 price into second place.
