South Island dairy production lifts despite stormy summer, feed risks loom
South Island dairy production is up on last year despite an unusually wet, dull and stormy summer, says DairyNZ lower South Island regional manager Jared Stockman.
Eight highly regarded candidates (including one sitting director) are vying for two seats on the industry-good organisation’s board.
One commentator remarked that at least four of the eight candidates could easily get farmer support to serve on Fonterra’s board.
DairyNZ election results will be known next week.
