Commenting on the price, the Co-op said: “The escalation of trade wars as well as the continued uncertainty around Brexit is casting a shadow on the dairy markets.
“Returns for many of the key products have now stabilised after a period of significant price pressure over the summer.
“Lakeland will continue to monitor the market closely in the coming weeks.”
