After a run of nine months of non-stop price increases by some milk buyers, the pace has slowed considerably to the point where mostly only milk buyers on time lags are left to announce changes

Prof Magowan from British Society of Animal Science said the push back from society has highlighted the need for the supply chain to be on the front foot of communication, with the fact that approved feed additives have passed thorough safety testing and are needed to maximise the reduction in the carbon foot print of meat and milk

"Transparency and authenticity are key in food production"

The row over methane inhibitor Bovaer, last week's NFUS farmer rally and FG's campaign to Save Britain's Family Farms were all on the agenda this week from Íæż½ã½ã's Head of News and Business Alex Black

Arla has raised its December milk price with other dairies holding steady for January

The Food Standards Agency confirmed said milk from cows given Bovaer as a feed additive to reduce methane emissions was safe to drink and had undergone rigorous testing

The Dutch company, dsm-firmenich has released a statement, emphasising that Bovaer is an 'important scientific innovation in the fight against climate change'
