Fonterra CFO Andrew Murray Resigns
Fonterra Co-operative Group chief financial officer Andrew Murray has resigned to take up a role outside the dairy giant.
Not everyone loves Fonterra, let’s accept that.
Some farmers are cheesed off with the co-op for its performance, consumers are unhappy with the high price of milk and motorists are fed up of milk tankers clogging our roads.
However, one Northland man has taken his dislike of the co-op to a new level. The man (52) appeared in Whangarei District Court charged with shooting at the co-op’s Kauri plant; he was remanded in custody for a mental health assessment.
He faces charges of unlawful possession of a restricted firearm (an SKS 7.62/39 calibre), reckless discharge of a firearm and importing a restricted weapon.
Fonterra says the man has no direct connection to the co-op.

A major move is about to get underway to improve the quality and viability of dairy beef and cattle in NZ.
Veterinarians say changes to the code of welfare for dairy cattle provides a positive foundation for improved cattle welfare across the country.
Today, 15 October, is the International Day of Rural Women, which recognises rural women’s contribution to farming, communities and the environment.
Global dairy giant Lactalis has integrated its Australian operations with the Mainland Dairy consumer business it acquired from Fonterra earlier this year.
