NEWS that dairy giant Muller is to slash the price paid to its farmers by 1.5p per litre has seen NFU Scotland receive many calls from angry Muller suppliers.
The NFUS said the scale of the price drop is hugely disappointing for Muller direct suppliers and, worryingly, opens the door for other milk processors to follow suit.
The NFUS said it had spoken to colleagues in NFU England and Wales and would approach Muller with an urgent request for a joint face-to-face meeting in the next few days.
