The chairman of Waikato milk processor Tatua says the record 2017-18 annual result came on the back of a great team effort.

We looked briefly at the Landboss in October 2017, but more recently spent a week driving the latest version onfarm in Waikato just as spring showed its hand. 

Good cow flow is vital and at the heart of achieving efficient milkings.

Farmers will be able to administer a local anaesthetic for disbudding or dehorning, if they are trained, when new regulations come into force on October 1, 2019, says NZ Veterinary Association chief veterinary officer Helen Beattie.

It's an early winter morning, dark and chilly, but Northland dairy farmer Jane Hutchings couldn’t be happier.  

Many regions are experiencing an early spring. The collective sigh of relief is almost audible as we exit a winter and spring very different from last season.  

OPINION: Fonterra has delivered more real value to me than the other processors would have.

Why is Fonterra in a pickle? Is the death of democracy and a blob of arrogance in Fonterra to blame for the current crisis? 

Here's a pitch that will have the greenies seeing red. Intensive, high-yielding farming may be the best way to meet rising demand for food while conserving biodiversity, a new study has found.

Milk processors in Australia, including Fonterra, could soon be slapped with a mandatory code of practice.
