Peak milk supply restrictions hugely disappointing - ICMSA

March 16, 2021 4:40 pm The move by Glanbia to introduce a peak milk supply management mechanism has been described as “hugely disappointing” by the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers’ Association (ICMSA). Pat McCormack, the association’s president, was speaking following a meeting with Glanbia Ireland when he lamented that “an Irish processor has found itself in a situation outside of its control whereby it must introduce such a scheme and restrict family farms from reaching their sustainable potential on an annual basis”. “While the impression is given by some that Irish dairy is based on a factory-scale operation, the reality is that Irish dairy is dominated by real family farm operations producing milk sustainably off grass in a way that economically ‘backbones’ the rural communities involved,” McCormack said.

Co-op milk price increases encouraging for suppliers

New Kerry forward price scheme extremely encouraging - ICMSA

March 10, 2021 1:39 pm The new forward price scheme from Kerry Group has been lauded by the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers’ Association (ICMSA). Ger Quain, the association’s Dairy Committee chairperson, said the scheme is “extremely encouraging” and was a “vote of confidence” in dairy industry prospects through peak production and into quarter three (Q3). The Kerry Agribusiness Forward Price Scheme 19 opened for online applications at 2:00pm yesterday (Tuesday, March 9) and will close at 2:00pm today. Kerry confirmed the offer price as 34.8c/L (March to October 2021), including VAT, at 3.3% protein and 3.6% butterfat. The maximum volume that can be applied for is 20% of a supplier’s annual contracted milk volume, suppliers have been told.
