Hot off the press, they discuss the key elements including; Arla’s growth plan in key dairy categories, including organic and the subsequent need to recruit more milk and new farmers. They discuss Arla’s significant investment commitments, including investments in processing capacity alongside investment in sustainability actions and product innovation. They go on to share their thoughts on the impact this will have on the wider UK dairy sector and farmers, including how Arla exploring export opportunities will increase competition and drive up the returns from liquid milk across the board.
