1-1. A FOURTH bulk milk collection
scheme has been instituted in Ayr, and another one is being prepared by Fife members of the National Farmers' Union. The Ayr scheme embraces 13 farms which have installed refrigerated storage facilities—one of them is run by the Hannah Dairy Research Institute, and another by the West of Scotland College of Agriculture.
Each producer is receiving a premium on his milk to pay for the installation of refrigeration and other equipment. At the opening ceremony, Mr. R. H. U. Stevenson, a member of the Milk Marketing Board and a leading Ayrshire producer, said that in the near future it was hoped that all Scottish milk would be stored and carried in bulk.
Other bulk tanker collection schemes are already operating at Kirkcudbright. Galloway and Angus.
