Ravenshoe dairy scheme eyed for calf and maize trades
A Ravenshoe plan to collect calves from various routes for delivery to Mareeba yards was endorsed. Board members supported extending the scheme to other dairies, with payments of three quarters of a penny per pound live weight and freight paid by the company. Debate covered cheaper maize for pig producers and the Maize and Bacon boards seeking sustained consumption to justify lower prices and longer commitments.
