Following on from a very successful harvest which saw strong yields and excellent quality, grain markets have strengthened based on global supply and demand. Dairygold, in line with its ethos, has demonstrated its support and commitment to its cereal growers by paying leading prices.
In addition, Dairygold continues to be firmly committed to maximising the use of native Irish cereals across its range of feedstuffs.

Quality Irish cereals are a key component of our feed rations and Dairygold will always aim to pay a competitive price for our Members’ grain.”
