MASSIVE rises in costs mean a long and unprofitable winter for Welsh dairy farmers unless milk purchasers pay their producers a sustainable price, NFU Cymru has warned.
Latest figures show intensive energy dairy rations up 28 per cent, low energy rations up 33 per cent and protein rations up nearly 20 per cent on last year.
Pembrokeshire NFU Cymru’s David James said: "Despite these huge increases in our costs over the past year, milk price on average has only moved by around 11 per cent in the same period, the gap continues to widen between what we receive for our milk and what it costs to produce."
