BRUSSELS, Oct 16 (Reuters) - European Union farm ministers will accept a proposal from the European Parliament to offer 300 million euros ($448 million) of extra aid to dairy farmers hit by low milk prices, EU diplomats said on Friday.
The aid will come from the European Union budget for next year and has won support from 21 of the 27 EU member states including France and Germany, the diplomats said. (Reporting Julien Troyer and Bate Felix)
