Fonterra slashes forecast milk price, again
Fonterra has slashed another 50c off its milk price forecast as global milk flows shows no sign of easing.
However, he "fully respects" the decision made by farmers.
"I was pleased with the support from farmers but not from the milk solids," he told Dairy News online.
Read was voted off by farmers in the co-op's director elections; Te Awamutu farmer and former National Foods chief executive Ashley Waugh is the new board member.
Chairman John Wilson and director Nicola Shadbolt were returned by shareholders.
Waugh joins the board at Fonterra's annual meeting in Waitoa today.
