Agricultural prices 1994/1995: basic price for sheepmeat

1994/95 AGRICULTURAL PRICES: The steady decline in butter consumption in the Community was causing ongoing problems on the market, which were being further exacerbated by the constant increase in the fat content of milk. The Commission therefore proposed to increase by 3% the reduction in the intervention price for butter already adopted for the period 1994/95 in order to make butter and milk fats more competitive, to stimulate consumption and to try to curb the upward trend in the fat content of milk. The target price for milk was fixed accordingly.�
