The Ministry of Agriculture is launching a series of urgent measures to help dairy farmers who have been suffering from plunging milk prices.

According to an internal circular released by the ministry on Wednesday, with increasing numbers of dairy processing companies cutting or halting collections of fresh milk, farmers in some regions have been pouring milk down the drain or even killing their dairy herds.

The circular is instructing poultry and farming departments at all levels to develop urgent measures to help dairy farmers sell their fresh milk.
