Fonterra Shareholders' Council chair, Ian Brown says the decision by the Fonterra Board of Directors to retain the services of Henry van der Heyden and Ralph Waters into 2013 would provide stability for the introduction of Trading Among Farmers (TAF).

A SHARE trading scheme for Fonterra farmers has passed the parliamentary hurdle. However, some farmers are unhappy with the Government’s refusal to put a legislative cap on the co-op’s proposed shareholders fund.

Amendments to the Dairy Industry Restructuring Amendment Bill have passed its third and final reading in Parliament.

National's agenda for Fonterra should be seriously questioned after it refused to support a move by Labour to protect farmers, says Labour's spokesperson for Primary Industries Damien O'Connor.

Fonterra' s vote on Trading Among Farmers means more safeguards are needed in the proposed legislation to protect farmer control and ownership, Labour's Primary Industries spokesperson Damien O'Connor says.
