This equates to an average July farm gate milk price of 51.56c/l, based on the average July 2025 milk solids achieved by Dairygold suppliers.
Dairygold’s quoted milk price for July, based on EU standard constituents of 3.4% protein and 4.2% butterfat, is 49.95c/l, excluding VAT.
A spokesperson for Dairygold said: “Global supply continues to grow across the main exporting regions and is currently outpacing demand growth, with prices easing as a result.
“Ongoing geopolitical tensions and risks continue to pose a challenge to buyers in the immediate term, although recent announcements should bring clarity.
“The Dairygold board continues to monitor markets closely and will review milk price on a monthly basis.”
