Milk markets have stabilised after initial Covid-19 panic
Having increased their lead in the milk price league, West Cork farmers are set to stay on top, with Drinagh Co-op anticipating that the price for April milk will be reduced by 1c per litre, and that price should then prevail until midsummer.
For March milk from over 1,220 suppliers to the Bandon, Barryroe, Drinagh, and Lisavaird Co-ops, Carbery reduced the base price paid by 1.5 cents per litre but offset the reduction by the same amount from its stability fund.
