Bombshell for dairy farmers supplying Arla
Dairy farmers supplying Arla have been gifted the “worst possible Christmas present” with the news they face another cut to their milk price in January.
The European farmers’ cooperative announced on Tuesday, December 23, it will cut its standard litre milk price by 2.03 pence to 24.81p a litre from January 5.
This follows a 1.63 pence price cut on December 1.
The company, which produces Lurpak, Anchor and Cravendale, said the latest price cut was a result of a European-wide reduction of 2.5 eurocents per kilo to its price.
Arla’s head of milk and member services in the UK, Ash Amirahmadi, said: “Global supply and demand are still out of balance which is continuing to create downward pressure.
