Experts from ADPF and Dairy Australia shared this information during the Dairy Rally delegation's visit, organized by Dairynews.today.
Currently, Australia has 4,163 dairy farms, with an average farm size of 305 cows.
Over the past 20 years, the industry has undergone significant changes in terms of its players. While cooperatives once dominated the sector, today, only one local cooperative remains.
The top 10 companies in dairy processing are:
Saputo
Fonterra Australia
Bega Group
Lactalis Australia
Australian Consolidated Group
Brownes Dairy
Burra Foods
Noumi Foods
Bulla
Norco
Dairy product processing across all products and supply chains generated AUD 18.5 billion. By all estimates, dairy processing accounts for only 0.2% of Australia's greenhouse gas emissions.
