Müller and First Milk signal price rises
Both processors announce higher farmgate milk prices from September as raw milk supplies continue to tighten across England and Wales.
Arla and Barber’s raise farmgate milk prices again
Arla adds a further 0.88p/litre, taking its headline manufacturing milk price to 38.15p/litre. Barber’s Cheesemakers also increases payments to farmers.
Driest July on record hits England
England receives only 8% of its average July rainfall, triggering drought conditions that slash grass growth and milk production. Arla increases milk price by 1.32p/litre.
ABS releases May inflation figures
The Australian Bureau of Statistics is expected to report that headline inflation edged down to 4.1% while underlying trimmed mean ticked up to 3.5%, reflecting diverging price trends.
Tentative truce allows Hormuz transits to increase
Cargo ships begin transiting the Strait of Hormuz in greater numbers following a fragile truce, though supply recovery is expected to take many months.
Oil prices trend lower despite Strait closure
Even with the Strait of Hormuz effectively shut amid Middle East conflict, crude oil benchmarks fall to multi-month lows, complicating the inflation outlook.
Home-brand milk prices increase
ANZ economists note home-brand milk prices rose in very late April, signalling early pass-through of energy and fertiliser cost pressures to perishable food.
UK supermarkets ration salad vegetables
Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Aldi and Lidl impose customer limits on tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and salad items following weather‑driven supply shortfalls from Spain and North Africa.
The UK’s record‑low July rainfall is a climate red flag, cutting milk production and threatening a repeat of 2023’s vegetable shortages. With Europe also baking, the extreme dry spell highlights agriculture’s growing vulnerability to heatwaves.
Energy markets are sending mixed signals: oil prices have fallen to March lows even as the Strait of Hormuz closure disrupted supply, with a tentative truce now allowing more transits. The 12.3% monthly fuel price drop will cool headline inflation but the lagged energy shock continues to push up food and transport costs, highlighting the complex energy transition backdrop.
