..: CLAL - New Zealand: dairy sector:..

This page contains data regarding key components of the New Zealand dairy industry over a given time period.

The purpose of this report is two-fold:

on the one hand, it describes the products that the industry produces, including commodities and various derivatives (butter, concentrated butter, cheese, milk powder, whey powder, casein, etc.);

on the other hand, it shows the overall exports of processed products - due to surplus production in relation to the population.

Home to a major exports cooperative, the Fonterra Cooperative Group, New Zealand is able to trade its dairy products on the international market.
