Dutch milk prices have risen for four months, with FrieslandCampina and several other processors raising prices while Arla lowered its price. Arla’s reduction could temper FrieslandCampina’s December increase, although rising cheese prices and continued increases by other processors point to a still-positive market.
A lower Arla price may feed into FrieslandCampina’s reference basket and slow Dutch farm-gate price gains. Continued strength in cheese and other dairy markets could support prices despite weakness in some whey proteins.
