UK average farm-gate milk price for December 2017 was 31.66 pence per litre, down 0.9% from November but 21% higher than a year earlier. December wholesale milk volumes rose 3.6% month on month to 1,212 million litres, in line with seasonal patterns.
Year-on-year price strength alongside seasonal volume recovery signals a firm UK milk market that supports dairy-based feed demand. Monthly easing is modest, so the price direction is broadly steady.
