$10.25/kgMS milk price now in play
A significant rise in Global Dairy Trade (GDT) auction last week has prompted one bank to lift its forecast milk price for the season to above Fonterra's mid-point.
After three successive Global Dairy Trade events recording increases in the price index, last night‘s auction saw a 2% drop.
A similar drop was also recorded in the price of whole milk powder, which Fonterra uses to set its milk payout. WMP price now sits at US$2985/MT.
Butter was the biggest gainer, rising 3.9% to US$3822/MT.
