Dairy Output Slump for Australia Despite 2 Percent Rise
In Australia the 12 months ending June 30 show butter production at about 130,000 tons down from 160,000 the year before due to drought in Queensland and New South Wales. Cheese output is near 0, versus 45,000 tons last year. Domestic consumption is forecast 110,000 to 120,000 tons butter and 20,000 to 10,000 tons cheese, with a large portion likely carried over for July to September shortages. Britain’s butter imports are negligible, with most surplus needed domestically and in the East. New Zealand Dairy Board predicts a 2 percent rise in the current season, aided by rain.
