Tridge summary

The price of milk and dairy products in Hungary is experiencing a significant increase, with the national average producer price of raw milk per kilo rising by 47% compared to the previous year, reaching over HUF 160 in June. This surge in prices is also reflected in the European market, where prices are even higher. As a result, Hungarian farmers are receiving offers from foreign dairies for a higher price, leading to a decrease in the delivery of raw milk by 30% in June compared to the previous year. Consumers are also feeling the pinch as the prices of various dairy products such as cow's cottage cheese, natural yogurt, sour cream, and canned milk have also increased significantly.
