Page 16 of the annual report details the percentage paid to the farmer. There is a sudden jump from whole milk to low-fat milk, with the percentage going to the farmer shooting up accordingly. The research examined 1 litre packs, but I imagine a small minority of milk is sold in 1 litre packs. Packs of 3 litres are becoming popular, but such packs and 2 litre packs would dominate the market. Is that right?
