Understanding how dairy co-ops work with Mike O'Connor

Is the flood of US investments by milk processing co-ops going to end badly? Are European co-ops struggling in a milk price/Input cost squeeze going to be able to pull through this difficult patch? And What are the key co-op fundamental principles that make the co-op structure fit milk processing? This week Jack Kennedy asks New Zealand's Mike O'Connor for answers around co-ops that seem stretched after recent milk processing investments while some private dairy companies seem to be thriving outside of the co-operative space. This week Mike O’Connor was appointed as an independent director to co-operative business New Zealand. We also hear updates from the North and South Island of New Zealand, the Netherlands and France.
