Lower North Island farmers “cautiously optimistic” heading into winter – DairyNZ
Cautiously optimistic is how DairyNZ's regional manager for the lower North Island, Mark Laurence describes the mood of farmers in his patch.
Shareholders Council chairman Ian Brown congratulated Wilson on his appointment.
"As a former Shareholders Council chair, John is in a unique position to understand farmers' interests and concerns and balance these against the needs of the business.
"The Council will continue to work towards solidifying a respectful working relationship with John and the board," he says.
Wilson takes over from Henry van der Heyden who steps down at the co-op's annual meeting in December.
