Looking at EU-28 milk production growth in 2018, supplies are only up 0.8 percent overall. The majority of this occurred in the earlier part of the year prior to the hot dry summer. In the last quarter of 2018, EU-28 milk production was down 0.5 percent.

The UK and Ireland, amongst others, have actually reported positive changes in milk production but this has been counteracted by the drops seen in France, Germany and the Netherlands.
