Castilla y León's regional agriculture councillor Joaquín Antonio Pino presented a study on cow milk production costs, which rose 11.6% while prices received by farmers fell 12.6%. The study was presented at a farm in Palencia, and Pino warned that dairy margins are being squeezed and pledged firm enforcement of the Food Chain Law.
Squeezed dairy margins may lead to herd reductions and lower domestic milk output, while Spain already imports dairy products, so the cost-price gap could tighten EU dairy balances and support higher import demand.
