In this week’s episode of the Kite Podcast, we’re heading to New Zealand for a wide-ranging update on the country’s dairy sector. Following recent storms with winds reaching 155km/h and widespread power outages, we explore how agriculture has been affected and what it means for farmers on the ground. Will Evans is joined by James Allen, CEO of AgFirst, to discuss milk flows, pricing, farmer confidence, and the implications of Fonterra’s $4.22 billion sale to Lactalis. We also look at New Zealand’s dairy export ambitions, including the strategic opening of Fonterra’s London office as part of its global push. As always, Chris Walkland brings us the latest milk market report, and Becki Reay is behind the scenes producing the show. Please note: The information provided during this podcast has been
