The “most fractious relationship between the farmers and the co-ops is price”, and if that effect of price “can be minimised”, farmers can have a “much cleaner, healthier relationship with your co-op”.

This is according to Diarmaid Mac Colgáin, founder of Concept Dairy and a former head of trading with Ornua, who is on a mission to bring transparency and harmony to the milk supply chain, from farmer to buyer.
