The days of Fonterra chasing more milk around the world are over.

Farmers already under the pump in trying to meet the requirements of the Government’s impending Zero Carbon Bill legislation will soon be hit soon by even more compliance costs.

Fonterra chief executive Miles Hurrell will provide “a bit of colour” around divestments and reducing costs across the business on Sept 12, says chair John Monaghan.

OPINION: Over the past week, Fonterra has been maligned by various commentators.

As well as laying out its new strategy, Fonterra should make clearer how it got into this trouble, says Federated Farmers national vice-president and dairy farmer Andrew Hoggard.

OPINION: Fonterra chief executive Miles Hurrell’s open and accessible approach has brought a refreshing change at the co-op. 

Miles Hurrell's confirmation as Fonterra’s chief executive has been warmly received on social media.

Former Fonterra chairman John Wilson was farewelled in Hamilton today by family, co-op colleagues, farmers and friends.

As we bid farewell to another year it’s time for the annual review of 2018 in the primary sector as seen by the Rural News editorial team.

Without doubt, 2018 will be remembered as Fonterra’s annus horribilis.
