Market shows signs of of improvement

摘要

With many Australian farmers still under pressure from a combination of older and more recent setbacks, the current steady-to-slightly-lower milk price outlook has understandably been met with gloom and disappointment.However, for many traders who sell the product that funds the milk price, the current commodity prices have been a welcome outcome. After all, only a few short months ago, a wholesale easing of market values had been expected.Some recent strength in the market is a further bonus, and the key question now is whether it will persist long enough to materially change next season's outlook.
