New protocol gives clarity to dairy co-ops and producers

The agreement of a new Milk Transfer Protocol by the dairy co-operative members of ICOS provides clarity and certainty around milk transfer for the small proportion of milk producers nationally who are not already in Milk Supply Agreements.

You might ask, why is a formal protocol necessary?

The main rationale is to protect the long-term stability and economic contribution of the co-operative dairy processing sector, which is owned and controlled by co-operative milk producers.
