Synlait increases forecast milk price to $9.60/kgMS


Synlait Milk Limited (Synlait) has increased its forecast base milk price for the 2021 / 2022 season to

$9.60/kgMS from $9.25/kgMS.


The forecast milk price update released today is outside of Synlait’s usual cycle of January, May and

September updates. Since Synlait’s January forecast update there has been a significant increase in

all global commodity prices.


Synlait CEO Grant Watson commented: “It is important Synlait responds in a timely fashion to large

movements in commodity prices to ensure we deliver a competitive farmgate milk price (and

associated cashflow) to our farmers.”


Forecasts are based on the best information available to Synlait at the time. Synlait will continue to

monitor movements and keep its farmer suppliers updated.
