As you are aware, the government recently gazetted new prices that will be paid to farmers. The increase is by about 70 per cent and as millers, we cannot absorb the costs. So we have consulted our members and agreed on a new price structure.
However, we will be withholding the announcement on when the new price structure will be effected until we have consulted the government but we definitely can’t absorb the new producer prices.
