With annual exports in excess of $11 billion, the dairy sector is New Zealand’s biggest export earner (DairyNZ 2010), and there is significant emphasis by central government to increase the dairy sector earnings as a component of overall GDP. The dairy sector is fundamental to New Zealand’s economic growth, and therefore it is critical that the sector is able to anticipate and mitigate any emerging production and market-based risks. Climate change poses significant risks to and increased operating uncertainty for a sector dependent on consistent climatic conditions.
