Milk price row: Farmers and processors agree draft deal
Dairy farmers and the processing firms they supply have agreed on the broad principles of a deal in their dispute over milk prices, the government says.
The draft agreement relates to a voluntary code of practice designed to give farmers more bargaining power.
But the National Farmers Union said it would not solve the current "crisis".
Farming Minister Jim Paice has chaired a meeting between the NFU and Dairy UK following a series of farmers' protests over the prices they are paid.
