Fonterra shareholders have voted in favour of implementing Trading Among Farmers.

Fonterra shareholders have voted in favour of implementing Trading Among Farmers.

Fonterra chief executive Theo Spierings is misleading farmers by claiming Trading Among Farmers (TAF) protects the cooperative, says Labour's Primary Industries spokesperson, Damien O'Connor.

Fonterra will no longer be in control of its own destiny if Trading Among Farmers does not proceed, Fonterra CEO Theo Spierings says.

Fonterra confirmed it has entered into a conditional agreement to acquire the milk processing assets of the New Zealand Dairies Ltd group in South Canterbury.

A GROUP of Fonterra shareholders has commissioned a report on hybrid cooperative models because they’re concerned they’re not getting the full story from their own board and management.

TAF (trading among farmers) comes to a head with a make it or break it vote on June 25.

A NEWLY opened Fonterra innovation centre in Shanghai will develop dairy products and ingredients for the China market.

FONTERRA CHIEF executive Theo Spierings has slammed a New Zealand Herald opinion piece by Federated Farmers Dairy chair Willy Leferink on TAF (trading among farmers) and Fonterra’s future.

THE GOVERNMENT is throwing its support behind TAF as Fonterra shareholders this week receive their voting papers for a final vote.
