HC Deb 26 January 1967 vol 739 cc343-4W
Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how much more per gallon the cost of milk production is in Wales than in England.

Mr. John Mackie

According to a recent survey by university departments of agricultural economics in England and Wales, about 3½d. more per gallon in the year ending 31st March, 1966. This difference is mainly attributable to a smaller size of dairy herd in Wales.
