DairyNZ: Dairy Sector Must Push Beyond Productivity Plateau
The dairy industry cannot rest on its laurels despite providing one in every four export dollars earned by the country, says DairyNZ chief executive Campbell Parker.
Ironically, the reason for the cancellation was a heavy rain warning that Metservice issued for Takaka, Golden Bay.
Farmers took to Twitter to thank DairyNZ for "organising" the rain, prompting one rain-starved Southland farmer to urge DairyNZ to organise a drought meeting for hisarea.
While the West Coast was also forecast to have heavy rain, many other regions - north and south - could also do with some 'rain-making' by DairyNZ.
