Ireland's domestic milk intake by processors and co-ops was estimated at 760.4 million litres in September 2026, down 1.7% year on year. Butter output fell to 28,600 tonnes from 30,100 tonnes, while Q3 2026 intake was down 4.0% versus Q3 2025.
A lower Irish milk supply tightens dairy inputs for feed and dairy-product markets, and falling butter output is mildly supportive of dairy prices. The effect on feed-ingredient demand is modest given Ireland's scale.
