Milk price records tumble in US, Irish market steadier

A 73% monthly milk price has set a new record in the US. The market is steadier in Ireland and the EU, but resilient despite Covid-19.

More of the big co-ops increased prices for June milk over the past week, including Carbery and Dairygold.

Carbery said if their increase of 0.5cpl is replicated across the Bandon, Barryroe, Drinagh and Lisavaird Co-ops, this will result in an average price for June of 31.9cpl, including VAT.
