The article reports a rise in the average price of raw milk in Ukraine, with the weighted average price as of December 10 being UAH 18.68/kg, an increase of 48 kopecks from the previous month. The prices vary across farms, with extra-grade milk costing up to UAH 20.5/kg. Demand for raw milk is still greater than supply, but there's an indication of decrease compared to earlier in the year. Additionally, the demand for finished dairy products exceeds the supply. However, high purchase prices of raw milk are leading to reduced processing, particularly in household milk and among butter and powdered milk producers. The current raw milk prices in Ukraine are almost in line with the European average, and the increase in milk prices, especially in New Zealand, suggests that there might not be a need for further price hikes in Ukraine, given the recent fall in commodity prices.
