The loss of producers is currently 15 HUF per liter. The processors give 55-60 HUF for a liter, the shops around 100 HUF and the customers purchase it for 180-220 HUF.

The situation is more complicated because large quantities of low priced foreign milk flows into Hungary; questionable quality milk, cream and cheese. Gamos András, CEO of Milkman Ltd. added; instead of the2 2 HUF per liter which was promised by the Ministry of Agriculture only 8.30 HUF per liter was paid out to producers on the pretense of base-based support – reports Origo.
