On Tuesday this week the board of Carbery decided to cut its May milk price by 0.5 c/litre.
It was then up to the individual boards of the four individual co-ops within Carbery to decide if they will pass back this cut to farmers. While Drinagh and Lisavaird both decided to hold, Barryroe, second from the top of the Irish Farmers Journal milk price league for April, implemented Carbery's 0.5c/l cut.
The price is now 23.25c/l excluding VAT based on 3.3% protein and 3.6% fat.
