Tirlán has announced a fixed milk price offer of 40c/litre for 2024 milk supply volumes that will open for applications in the coming days.
The scheme is voluntary, and the fixed price including Vat and sustainability action payment at 3.6% butterfat and 3.3% protein is being offered for the 12-month milk supply period of January to December 2024 inclusive.
Tirlán said the price will be adjusted to reflect the actual constituents of milk delivered by suppliers, and unconditional seasonality payments will be paid on top of the fixed milk price (scheme 19) price.
The minimum application is 10,000 litres, with a maximum of 20% of a supplier’s milk supply volumes over the previous 12 months.
Milk suppliers will be notified once the application process opens in the coming days. Applications will be processed online with support available as required.
Volumes allocated will be confirmed before a supplier is contractually committed.
Tirlán will facilitate any supplier who wishes to fix the price up to May 31, 2024, of a volume of feed and fertiliser equivalent to the volume of milk fixed.
This will be undertaken directly with the relevant business/branch manager.
