Dairy farming has changed much in recent years and career progression is not as straightforward as it used to be.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can no longer ignore the growing demand that it enforces its own regulations against fake dairy foods.

Australian farmer Brian McLaren has been a loyal Murray Goulburn supplier for 48 years but the latest price blow could be the final straw.

Australian dairy farmers have welcomed dairy co-op Murray Goulburn’s “honesty and transparency” in announcing its 2017-18 milk price.

Fonterra is pumping another $20 million into its Te Rapa site to produce more export cream cheese and mini-dish butter to meet rising demand.

Information technology will be the key to farming in the future, says DairyNZ’s general manager for research and development.

Killing pests needs to be a must-do for all landowners, says DairyNZ chief executive Tim Mackle.

Recent attacks on farmers were deeply unfair, says the Minister for Primary Industries, Nathan Guy.

BNZ rural economist Doug Steel has dared to mention $7 for the new season milk price, but with very strong notes of caution.

The back-to-fat story was reinforced at the latest GDT event with butter up 3.3% to a fresh auction record high of US$5631/t, says ASB senior rural economist Nathan Penny.
