Milk Production At Dairy-Farm Trittau

HAMBURG, GERMANY - JULY 02: Filled milk cartons in the storage of the Meyerei-Trittau dairy plant on July 1, 2008 in Trittau, Germany. German dairy farmers recently struck with milk production boycotts in an effort to force supermarkets and dairy plants to guarantee higher prices. Though leading supermarket chains, including Lidl, agreed to raise their prices, the farmers still face an uncertain future as many analysts predict a continued rise in energy prices.
