In Ireland, over the next two weeks, dairies will face an overabundance of milk as enterprises try to preserve stocks processed during peak production.
Weekly stocks are 13-20% higher than last year, as the combination of an increase in the number of cows and the rapid growth of grass was reflected in an increase in milk supplies.
In Ireland, another record year of milk deliveries is projected, which will for the first time exceed 8 billion liters. Last year's figure exceeded 7.5 billion liters.
Industry sources are confident that the system has enough processing capacities to cope with the latest increase in milk supplies, but at the same time they warned that it will be necessary to continue continuous work at each plant over the next few weeks.
The representative of the cooperative society Arrabawn said: “The whole industry will need the next few months for everything to go smoothly. Any interruptions in processing will cause problems. ”
Another industry insider said processing facilities could be “in trouble” if problems arose at any of the large facilities, especially on weekends.
Most dairies expect a peak in milk supplies in the coming week, which is much earlier than usual.
