The dairy industry suffers losses across the entire industry, not simply due to supply and demand imbalances. Please refer to the survey from the front line
According to a survey, the current national contract purchase price for fresh milk has dropped from over 4 yuan per kilogram last year to around 3.75 yuan. After the contract expires, the purchase price of fresh milk is only about 3 yuan per kilogram, falling below the average cost line of 4 yuan per kilogram of fresh milk. The significant decline in fresh milk prices has led to losses for the entire dairy farming industry, and some have even fallen into survival difficulties.

Where is the turning point? Feed costs remain high, and dairy farming is under pressure
The pressure from feed costs has once again brought attention to the raw milk industry. Since 2021, domestic feed prices have been continuously rising, and this year, the rise in prices of soybean meal, corn, and other products has further increased the breeding costs of upstream pastures. Even the occurrence of harvesting green wheat for feed, although on a small scale, reflects to some extent the problems in the breeding sector.
