The increase from Wyke Farms is in addition to the 0.5ppl increase in October meaning an overall autumn rise of 1.25ppl.
This maintains Wyke Farms’ position near the top of the league table and will be the highest milk price paid for cheese.
The continued support for farmers from Wyke Farms is in response to the challenging environment created by extreme weather over the summer months, the company said.
The company, whose farming side of the business has also suffered from the effects of the extraordinary weather, has shared concerns with local farmers regarding the quality and yield of crops.
The farming team at Wyke Farms is also working through these challenges on their own farms and they are asking their cheese customers to recognise the importance of the supplement.
