This is evident from the data in the Boerenbusiness milk price comparator. The basic milk price for January is €54,03 per 100 kilos. That is €1,06 below the January average of the companies in the milk price comparison. This average is €55,08 per 100 kilos and is 79 cents lower than the average for December 2024.
The maximum milk price is €60,03 closer to the average of this category, which is €60,39 per 100 kilos. The average milk price in the top milk flow segment has increased in January, despite a reduction in the basic milk price. This is because several processors, including Cono itself, introduced additional premiums as of 1 January.
