No Panic Buying Please, There's Plenty of Fuel Around - Feds
Farmers want more direct, accurate information about both fuel and fertiliser supply.
Mackle announced his resignation earlier this week after 15 years as DairyNZ’s chief executive.
“After a lot of thought and discussion with family, I have decided to step down at the end of June which will allow the Board time to have a smooth transition and to recruit my successor,” Mackle said in a statement on Tuesday.
“I am proud to have had the opportunity to lead DairyNZ over this period, the dynamism and constant challenge and change in our sector has made it an exciting and purposeful role.”
Hoggard says that under Mackle’s leadership DairyNZ “has supported farmers to improve environmental performance and adjust to increasing regulatory compliance”.
“Tim has always been a pleasure to work with, he is well liked and well respected for his collaborative and positive approach to work,” he says.
DairyNZ chair Jim van der Poel is also acknowledging Mackle’s contribution to both DairyNZ and dairy farmers during his tenure.
“Tim has always been hugely passionate about helping dairy farmers navigate challenges they have faced and continue to face,” van der Poel says.
He says the industry good organisation has been “fortunate” to have had Mackle through several challenging periods.
“I would also like to personally acknowledge Tim. I have immense respect for Tim. Firstly, for the commitment and integrity that he brings to the role and the way he always conducts himself. And, for the huge intellect and passion he brings.”
The recruitment process for a new DairyNZ chief executive will begin shortly.
