A Sainsbury’s spokesman said: “We are working closely with our farmers to help them navigate the significant cost pressures we understand they are facing, while continuing to invest in keeping prices as low and competitive for our customers as we can".
Sainsbury’s said that milk prices were also impacted by higher costs of packaging and transport, which has risen by around a third due to fuel prices. An Arla spokesman said: “The cost of living squeeze is putting real pressure on households at the same time, the cost of producing milk has increased to an all-time high and our farmers are struggling to cover their costs, which is resulting in less milk being produced.
"The cost increases that we are seeing on farm are so significant we do have to pass some of these on to ensure our farmers can continue the supply of products into the shops."
