The board of Carbery Group met on Tuesday and decided to cut the base milk price for March supply by 2c/l. However, it is topping this up with a 2c/l support, meaning that farmers will receive the same price as they did for February milk which was 32.88c/l excluding VAT.
Arrabawn
Similarly, the board of Arrabawn decided to reduce milk price by 2c/l but, in light of current difficulties at farm level, it will pay a bonus of 2c/l for March. A spokesperson for Arrabawn said this will maintain a price of 32.3c/l excluding VAT for March milk.
