Dairy farming in New Zealand • 4.8 million cows producing 20 billion litres of milk per year • Pasture grazing farm model • Fertile soils, high rainfall and moderate temperatures • Less than 3% of global milk production • No Government subsidies • Around 90 processing plants in NZ • Export to over 100+ countries • Sales based on safety and quality • Positive regulatory industry relationship • Meets the world toughest regulatory and private standards
The foundation for a successful dairy manufacturing and exporting industry is a regulatory framework that importing countries can trust New Zealand dairy exports are supported by the NZ governments’ commitment to a risk-based regulatory system and standards development programme, underpinned by sound science
The regulatory framework needs to ensure awareness of roles and responsibilityacross the food chain A strong regulatory framework is required… … outlining the legal obligations and duties of farm owners, farm operators, and dairy manufacturers across the food chain.
The Quality Pyramid Sustainable business models are all about consistently meeting and exceeding customer / consumer expectations REGULATORY COMPLIANCE Fully comply with exporting and importing country requirements Meeting domestic and international regulatory requirements is really just the qualifying criteria - Importance of international harmonisation Food safety and quality has to be owned by and built in at every step by the Industry
Milk processing and collection: You are only as good as your raw material – quality starts on the farm .

Manufacturing control (including storage) is required to produce food acceptable for international consumption HACCP plans are used to identify, evaluate and control risks from hazards to animal or human health of dairy materials or dairy products during the manufacture, transport or storage of the dairy materials or dairy products in NZ
Product sampling, testing and release best practice • Use of accredited laboratories • Milk quality tested on farm, on arrival and at time of manufacture • Only quality verified ingredients are added • Product is released following microbiological, chemical, functional and sensory testing • Nutritionals products may include additional customer, regulatory requirements including tighter limits for food safety tests
Exporters must comply with all relevant food laws and regulations of countries you manufacture in, export to, and where products are sold domestically • Meet domestic regulatory requirements for export • Comply with Overseas Market Access Requirements • Gain any required certificates of assurance from the relevant regulatory authority • These generally relate to animal health, heat treatment, chemical residues, micro and truth of labelling
