United Dairy Farmers of Victoria
The United Dairy Farmers of Victoria (UDV) is a key representative body for dairy farmers in the region, committed to advocating on their behalf to ensure fair practices and sustainable development within the industry.
Location
The organization operates out of Victoria, Australia, a region known for its significant contribution to the national dairy output.
Financial Indicators
While specific financial figures for the UDV are not publicly disclosed, the organization plays a crucial role in influencing economic conditions for local dairy farmers by lobbying for better prices and market conditions. The financial wellbeing of the farmers it represents is a primary focus.
Important Events
Recently, Bernie Free, a representative of the UDV, expressed serious concerns regarding the increasing 'paddock-to-plate' control by major retailers such as Coles. This control can potentially impact the pricing and market access for local farmers, which the UDV actively challenges to protect the interests of its members.
Company Plans
The UDV continues to focus on ensuring fair trade practices and improving the profitability of dairy farming in Victoria. This includes ongoing dialogue with major market players and government bodies to ensure stable and equitable market conditions for dairy farmers.
