# Raw Milk Price Increase on Government Agenda

> Iranian dairy farmers are seeking a higher raw-milk price as feed costs have risen sharply; ministry experts have proposed 70,800 tomans per kilogram, compared with a current price of 60,500. The Market Regulation Headquarters is expected to decide on the price next week, while farmers say current feed costs have pushed milk production costs to at least 75,000 tomans per kilogram.

## Why it matters

A higher regulated milk price could support dairy production, but the sharp rise in feed costs raises livestock input expenses and may pressure margins or output. Iran’s reliance on imports for most soybean meal and corn and much of its barley makes domestic feed costs sensitive to import supply and prices.
