International comparison of producer prices for milk

Average milk price March € 50.23

The calculated advance milk prices in March 2025 will be an average of € 50.23 per 100 kg of standard milk. This represents a 1.8% decrease compared to February 2025. The average milk price in March 2025 is still nearly 13% higher than that in the same month of the previous year.

The fall in the average in March put an end to the almost continuous upward trend since October 2023. The influence of the loss of seasonal surcharges at English and Irish companies here is relatively strong though. Outside Europe, the milk price calculated for the US also saw a relatively large decrease in March, with both the lower valuation of the milk constituents and the falling dollar exchange rate playing a role.

EDF-ZuivelNL International Milk Price Comparison

The joint project was discontinued in 2021 due to cutbacks at ZuivelNL. EDF continued to collect milk price information making it possible to calculate and publish comparable milk prices of the missing months from March 2021 onwards.
The name has been changed to EDF-ZuivelNL International Milk Price Comparison to give visibility to the executing parties. In terms of content, it is a continuation of the LTO International Milk Price Comparison.
