Aurivo’s price remains unchanged at 34.62 c/l excluding VAT.

All milk processors declaring their December milk price so far have left it unchanged. This includes Lakeland, Glanbia, Kerry, Arrabawn and Dairygold.

There has been mixed signals from markets, with a drop in Ornua’s PPI index for December but a rally in dairy commodity prices at the last two GDT auctions.
