The board of the Carbery group has decided to increase milk price for September by 1c/l.
It is now up to the individual co-ops within Carbery– Drinagh, Barryroe, Lisavaird and Bandon – to decide if they will follow suit. Last month, all four implemented Carbery’s 1.5c/l increase for August.

The Irish Farmers Journal calculates milk price excluding VAT.
