Fonterra's Head of Farm Source Northland, Mike Borrie caught up with The Country's Rowena Duncum for an update on what's happening with the dairy co-op in his region.
Borrie says his team in Northland has been focused on the transition of the Farm Source Trading Accounts from ANZ Securities to First NZ Capital. The 15th July is the last day for farmers to complete the changeover or they'll have to set up a new account.
Paperwork is a big part of farming says Borrie but the transition process between accounts isn't hard work and farmers can changeover by signing into their online account.
If there are any problems Borrie says farmers should call the service centre on 0800 65 65 68.
Also in today's interview: Mike Borrie talks about how Fonterra's Pahiatua plant is saving water, how the Brightwater site is reducing emissions, and Northland's award-winning team at the Kauri manufacturing plant.
