The ANZ Dairy Forum Addresses The Big Issues Faced By Dairy Farmers

Posted on 24/02/2015 by Sinclair Wilson in General News

Principle Basil Brock applied his professional knowledge and personal experience as a dairy farmer to the 2015 ANZ Dairy Forum at the Sungold Field Days this year.

The event was hosted by ANZ’s Head of Agribusiness, Mark Bennett, and also received contributions from Dairy Australia’s Director/Owner, Amy Bellhouse, and Reid Stockfeed’s Ian Reid.

Some of the key questions addressed by the Forum included:

  • How can the Australian dairy industry take advantage of future FTA roll-outs?
  • Is foreign investment something we want or need in the industry?
  • Are there other ways for the dairy farmer to reduce long-term feeding costs?
