The Irish Farmers Journal understands Kerrygold is back on sale in Dunnes Stores and Tesco two weeks after the butter was dropped over a price dispute.

At the time, the Irish Farmers Journal revealed Tesco and Dunnes had dropped the iconic brand after price rises had been sought by processors on the back of a strong butter market.

Kerrygold is commanding a price premium of €3.75 for a 454g pack, up from €3.39 earlier in the year. This compares with between €2.19 and €2.39 per 454g pack for private-label butter.
