> Slovakia’s average farmgate raw-milk purchase price rose 4.7% month on month in September 2026 to €39.08 per 100 kg, but remained well below its year-earlier level. The article says retailers’ milk prices were down 8.6% year on year, while farmers faced losses amid EU raw-milk oversupply; a producer group argued that higher dairy-product prices are needed to sustain production.
