The increase of 1ppl with effect from 1 June 2013 comes against a backdrop of lower production on farms and strengthening global dairy commodity values.
Martin Armstrong, supply chain planning director for Müller Wiseman Dairies, said: “We are committed to paying a competitive and straightforward milk price, and it’s important to stress that unlike other milk buyers, this is not then immediately eroded by capital levies, membership retentions, haulage and balancing charges.
“Our milk price from June reflects continuing pressure on milk supplies and a strengthening in global dairy commodities. We believe that it’s important to act in order to secure the milk required to meet our customers’ requirements.”
