Milcobel is keeping the milk price for August the same as for the previous two months. While the dairy markets are showing a clear summer dip, Milcobel can still avoid reductions based on current results and existing contracts.
However, Milcobel's position doesn't change much. The three Dutch processors on the Belgian market are paying more for milk.
Compared to competitor LDA, Milcobel currently pays a fraction more, but LDA announces the payment of the milk money later, as is also clear from the Boerenbusiness Belgian milk price comparator.

The difference in payment with intended merger partner FrieslandCampina is almost 60 cents per 100 kilos (excluding additional payment).
