FONTERRA’S milk collection across Australia for the 2013-14 season has reached the same level as the previous season, despite a drop in spring.

The New Zealand dairy giant confirmed its milk collection in Australia for the 12 months to June 30, 2014, reached 120 million kilograms milk solids (kgMS), meeting the same level as the previous season.

“Milk production in Australia increased in the second half due to more favourable market and pasture growth conditions along with additional farms electing to supply Fonterra. As a result, collection in June was 16 per cent ahead of June last season,” Fonterra said in its July Global Dairy Update released this week.

As previously reported by FarmOnline, Fonterra’s milk collection across NZ for its 2013-14 season, which ended on May 31, was 8pc higher than the 2012-13 season.

Milk collection across NZ for the month of June 2014 reached 9 million kgMS, 10pc higher than June 2013.
