bloody hell, $9.25/kg is still decent but not what we were hoping for eh

Softer demand my arse, Fonterra's been mismanaging this for years. Time to break up the monopoly.

lol cope. Fonterra's board needs a cleanout, not sympathy.

As a farmer, this is gutting. Cost of production is through the roof and they just drop the forecast.

get stuffed, you city people don't know the half of it

Drew Parker2026-07-13T01:19:54.000Z

Hang in there farmers, we all going through tough times. Hopefully it picks up.

Can't believe this is happening when global demand was supposed to boom. Makes you think.
