Fair milk price for Dairy Farmers

Pay Dairy Farmers a price for their milk that is above the cost of production.

Why is this important?

To keep farmers in milk production to guarantee the UK keeps control of future supplies. Hundreds of farmers have already given up milk production, it is not something that can be stepped up again quickly. A guaranteed minimum price is vital to keep production levels stable. Supermarkets using milk as a loss leader at the expense of the producers is very short sighted and cheap milk now is great, but we need to safeguard the future by paying a fair price now. Let the supermarkets take the hit NOT the Farmers.
