    It feels like the golden days for dairy farmers - as they celebrate a record-breaking year

    It feels like the golden days for dairy farmers - as they celebrate a record-breaking year


    Dairy NZ's annual state of the dairy nation report, shows farmers produced an unprecedented 21-billion litres of milk in the 2024/2025 season.

    The sector smashed export records - raking in more than 27-billion dollars.

    Dairy NZ Chief Executive Campbell Parker says it reflects the good work farmers have done over a long time.

    He says this injection into the economy, can be invested back - meaning it's especially good for New Zealand.
