Cuts to the milk price paid to farmers will drive them out of the dairy business and increase prices for consumers in the long run, farming leaders have warned.


The National Farmers' Union and other farming unions are holding a summit in London to fight back against the price cuts which were announced by three leading processors, Arla Foods UK, Robert Wiseman Dairies and Dairy Crest.
