Fonterra review attracts 1400 submissions
A steering group reviewing the Fonterra Shareholders Council has received over 1400 responses from farmers and sharemilkers.
Last year two farmer nominated candidates won seats ahead of candidates (including one sitting director) endorsed by the Fonterra board and shareholders council. The board anointed candidates also had the blessing of the independent selection panel.
But farmers disregarded that and voted for two self nominated candidates. Two sitting directors are standing again this year.
