Farmers, not supermarkets, 'will pay' for cuts in food prices, warns farming body
Over the weekend, Lidl, Aldi, Tesco and Supervalu all announced a cut in the price of their own brand milk by 10c.
A supermarket price war could put farmers out of business and create a situation where retailers “won’t have Irish milk to put on their shelves”, the Irish Farming Association (IFA) has warned.
The IFA is set to meet with supermarkets over recent price reductions, which provided some relief to consumers after a period of rapid inflation.
