DairyNZ Calls for Changes to Government’s Proposed Resource Management Act Reform
DairyNZ says the Government’s proposed Resource Management Act reform needs further work to ensure it delivers on its intent.
OPINION: DairyNZ's director elections has seen scientist Jacqueline Rowarth re-elected for another three-year term.
Does this mean the experienced agribusiness director and academic will get her deputy chair role back?
In June it was announced that DairyNZ chair Jim van der Poel and Rowarth would step down in October. Matamata farmer Tracy Brown, a farmer-elected director since 2019, was named chair-elect.
However, Rowarth was surprised by the number of farmers expressing their regret that she won't be continuing in the role and changed her mind a month later.
The DairyNZ board meets soon to ratify the appointment of chair-elect Tracy Brown.
OPINION: "We are back to where we were a year ago," according to a leading banking analyst in the UK, referring to US president Donald Trump's latest imposition of a global 10% tariff on all exports into the US.
DairyNZ says the Government’s proposed Resource Management Act reform needs further work to ensure it delivers on its intent.
Overseas Trade Minister Todd McClay says he's working constructively with the Labour Party in the hope they will endorse the free trade agreement (FTA) with India when the agreement comes before Parliament for ratification.
Donald Trump's latest tariff tantrum has again thrown the world of trade into a new round of turmoil and uncertainty, and NZ is caught up in it.
The third edition of the NZ Dairy Expo, held in mid-February in Matamata, has shown that the KISS principle (keep it simple stupid) was getting a positive response from exhibitors and visitors alike.
Twenty years ago, South African dairy farm manager Louis Vandenberg was sent to a farm in Waikato to provide training on Afimilk technology.
OPINION: One of the world's largest ice cream makers, Nestlé, is going cold on the viability of making the dessert.
OPINION: Is it a case of over promising and under delivering? Farmers think so.
