The increase follows the UK’s second-largest dairy processor’s 0.5ppl deduction from the June (now 4.75ppl positive this year to date).
This takes its liquid standard litre up from 26.19ppl to 27.69ppl, before the retailer supplement.
It comes as news that payments worth £2.4 million to Scottish dairy farmers will arrive in farmers’ bank accounts in the coming days, the Scottish government has confirmed.
