News Item: Czech Republic - High Milk Prices.

CZECH REPUBLIC - The Mlada fronta Dnes daily reports that milk prices in the Czech Republic are now at their highest for eight years, with the price of a litre of medium-fat milk being CZK15.52 (USD0.76) in late July, according to the CTK news agency. This price was CZK1 (USD0.05) higher than at the start of this year.

Czech retailers and milk producers attribute the price growth to rising demand for dairy products in the European Union and Asia, low milk production in Germany and France, and reduced supplies from Australia because of drought there.

Foreign customers are said to be particularly interested in powdered milk. Czech dairies find it more lucrative to produce and export powdered milk than sell fresh milk on the domestic market. Increased demand for dairy products is also being fuelled by high demand in China, say reports.
