The European Union-27 (EU-27) experienced a slight increase in milk delivery by 0.4% from January to August compared to the previous year. The sales of dairy products to third countries have had mixed results, with notable increases in significant dairy products. The EU Commission's data shows that EU-27 exports grew by 7% in the first eight months of 2021, primarily due to increased deliveries to the USA and China. However, purchases of EU cheese have decreased in Japan and South Korea.
