The article highlights a decrease in the average purchase price of extra grade milk in Ukraine, from UAH 12.18/kg to UAH 12.13/kg, reflecting a broader trend of falling dairy prices across Europe. This decrease is attributed to the adaptation of producers and processors to market realities, following a period of increased milk prices due to reduced production in Europe and New Zealand. The war in Ukraine has led to a decline in dairy imports, a reduction in the domestic market, and challenges such as rising feed prices and the occupation of agricultural land by Russia. These factors contribute to the instability of raw milk prices in Ukraine, while also impacting the production of condensed milk powder and butter. The article suggests that these price fluctuations are expected to be managed to minimize significant impacts on large batches of milk, with the maximum price for extra grade milk likely to range between UAH 12.10 and 12.20 per kg until mid-summer.
