  19. Fonterra milk price model • Calculates revenue if all milk was processed into basic commodities & sold overseas • Deducts shipping, processing & freight costs • Balance paid to farmers as milk price • Value add – eg selling premium ingredients/ investment in consumer brands – treated as profit • Farmers receive profit as dividends on their Fonterra shares, plus price paid for raw milk

  20. Looking ahead • Dairy making large & growing contribution • Global supply/demand supports NZ growth • On-farm business success $83/ha/yr • Erosion of NZ’s low cost base poses threat • Imperatives for productivity improve remain • Public & consumers driving sustainability • Public perceptions about dairy are mixed • Skilled people increasingly important • Unified approach to innovation & adoption
