In the middle of spring, season of the year in which the abundance of grasses boost the production of milk, we found that the production of the month of October instead of generating a peak fell significantly. MINAGRI published 1,011 million litres referred to liters/day shows an evolution of just +0.3% as on September 2018, when October historically, an increase of +6%. This production was +2% higher compared to October 2017. The typical peak of production is pressed, the weather is very good, but with desperate adjustments in the costs of power observed in the drums. The producer must wait until the price of milk to recover from the concentrated...in the currency of today represent 10$/lt and is paying the bills with 8,50$/lt.
