EU announces private storage aid is on the way as Carbery bucks the milk price trend

The Carbery group’s annual report reveals milk volume growth by 42% since EU milk quotas were scrapped in 2015

Dairy farmers in West Cork have welcomed Carbery’s decision to offset a 1.5 cent per litre March milk price cut with 1.5cpl from the Carbery stability fund.

In contrast, there were price cuts of between 1.5 and 2cpl from co-ops including Dairygold, Glanbia, Kerry, Lakeland and Aurivo.
