Fonterra’s Pierre Venter named next vice chancellor of Massey University
The head of Fonterra's R&D facility in Palmerston North is set to literally cross the road and become the new vice chancellor at Massey University.
Speaking at the Northern Dairy Development Trust Conference in Whangarei today, Steel said things were looking much better now than in December.
Global Dairy Trade auction prices have risen three times this year.
Steel told about 120 farmers at the conference that whole milk powder prices were up 13% in the three auctions this year.
“It’s pretty much a recognition that NZ weather has been awful; clearly the markets recognised that weather had been dry from November to December,” Steel says.
