Musical chairs

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.
