# IFA Says Brexit Concerns Must Not Influence June and Further Milk Price Decisions - Irish Farmers' Association

> The Irish Farmers' Association says co-op boards should hold June milk prices despite Brexit worries. Friesland Campina joined Arla in holding its July price. The IFA says weaker sterling could hurt UK exports but a weaker euro helps third-country sales, and it cites falling EU and Oceania milk output.

## Why it matters

Falling production in major exporting regions is tightening global dairy supply, which supports milk prices. A weaker euro against the dollar improves export competitiveness.
