Eko-Holland pays an advance milk price of €62,80 per 100 kilos for July (with an annual supply of 1 million kilos). FrieslandCampina pays €62,48 per 100 kilos. As a result, these two major players in organic dairy are lagging behind the smaller players, such as A-ware and Vreugdenhil, but also Arla, which is one of the largest parties in organic dairy.

The price difference between various meadow milk flows and organic milk has also almost completely disappeared. A-ware pays almost as much for meadow milk as FrieslandCampina and Eko-Holland pay for organic milk. Lactalis Leerdammer is not far from that with the meadow milk price either.
Milk price biodynamic below that of 'normal' organic
Eko-Holland has left the biodynamic milk price for July unchanged at €61,25 per 100 kilos. This means that the price is lower than the normal organic milk price for the first time in a very long time.
