Glanbia Ireland has increased its base milk price for August, but an equivalent co-op support payment is coming to an end.
Its manufacturing price at 3.6% fat and 3.3% protein now stands at 30.4c/l excluding VAT, up 1c/l on July's level. However, there will be no 1c/l Glabia Co-op support payment this month.
Glanbia chair Martin Keane said: “The market outlook remains cautious. The level of milk supply from the main exporting regions will be a key factor determining the price outlook over the coming months.”.

The PPI index of dairy commodity prices compiled by Ornua showed a 3.5% increase that month.
