Burra Foods is pleased to formally announce its opening minimum farmgate milk price range for FY26 of $8.60 – $9.10 per kilogram of milk solids, applicable from July 1 (yesterday), through June 30, 2026.
As with previous years, this price range reflects what most Milk Supply Partners can realistically expect to receive — rather than a weighted average that may not reflect the individual circumstances of many farms.
“This is an increase over last year’s opening price and is reflective of the improved market conditions across the season. However, the influence of tariffs and global instability cannot be ignored. They pose a threat to the sustainability of current market pricing and milk returns,” chief executive officer Stewart Carson said.
“We remain committed and very proud to invest in our communities through the Burra Foundation, which enables our Milk Supply Partners to propose local projects for funding — fostering stronger, more vibrant and sustainable Gippsland dairy communities.”
