The new NFU dairy board chairman has called for farmers to receive a long overdue price increase for their milk. Mansel Raymond has also promised to investigate the dairy market to ensure farmers get what they are owed. "Dairy farmers are feeling more confident about their future prospects according to DairyCo's latest survey, but they also have high expectations for milk price rises this year," says Raymond. "My big concern is that any confidence and positivity farmers feel now will drop like a stone if these legitimate expectations for price increases are not met soon."
