Demand for Milk and Low Butter Stocks Prevent Price Declines in Europe
Relatively warm weather in the second half of February contributed to an increase in milk production in Europe.

Global Dairy Market: Producing Milk Becomes More Expensive in 2025
According to AHDB, global milk production in 2024 was significantly impacted by rising production costs in regions such as Argentina, Australia, China, Ireland, New Zealand, the Netherlands, California, and the Upper Midwest of the United States. Key factors driving these costs included increased prices for feed and fertilizers, which substantially affected milk production costs directly on farms. Additional pressures came from the war in Ukraine, adverse weather conditions, rising energy prices, trade disputes, higher labor and logistics costs, supply chain disruptions, and post-COVID-19 inflation. Increased interest rates on loans also contributed to higher production costs. These factors are likely to continue affecting the dairy industry throughout 2025.
