New Zealand’s dairy industry is indeed a low-cost world leader, commanding one-third of world trade in dairy products. Dairy farmers surely do work punishing hours, and no farmer could last long without a care for the land. But this is not a problem for the dairy industry alone. We all will benefit from that, so we should not ask the dairy industry to do it all by themselves. But perhaps we might ask that it stop wasting money on a PR campaign that pretends there is no problem to solve.
