We have a massive production of milk. Of course if most if it’s exported, we have artificially less milk for domestic use. Hence higher price.
All they would have to do… To decrease export slightly and prices would drop?
each 454g block of butter requires around 8 Litres of milk to make.
All dairy products. Milk up over 20% too
It’s a commodity sold on the international market. International factors affect prices you see at a national level. We export €6.3 billion which is 40% of total Agri output. Farmers are having a good time.
Climate change
It should cost more
Thankfully these factors aren’t in effect in other countries where you can get Irish made butter for cheaper than here.
