00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: Jamie McKay, Hosts of the Countries with us A Jamie O.

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: Gooday here, but hear you've got a hot take on

3
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 1: the price of butter and on cheese, because Laura, the producer,

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 1: was saying to me she was gutted. She went to

5
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 1: New World the other day and it was ten bucks

6
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: for what was it, anchor an anchor butter. That's a lot.

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: Well, I'd just said to produce a Laura, get used

8
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:24,240
Speaker 2: to it. Unfortunately, because the price of international dairy commodities

9
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 2: is going up, so we're just surely as night Fellow's day,

10
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 2: the price of butter and cheese and the supermarkets is

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 2: likely to go up. And I was watching the story

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 2: on one of the network news programs about twenty dollars

13
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 2: for a block of cheese. Laura's saying ten bucks for

14
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,959
Speaker 2: a block of butter. And the bizarre thing about all

15
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: this feat there is I'm here also hearing there's like

16
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: a butter shortage in this country, which is absolutely yeah, apparently.

17
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 2: Well I couldn't believe it a couple of weeks ago

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 2: when they said there was a shortage of beef and lamb.

19
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 2: You know, we grow the stuff, we export it. We

20
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: seem to have a shortagehove at domestically. But yep, just

21
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: on the subject of cheese, it'll go up because farm

22
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: what internationally, commodity prices are going up, So go stock

23
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: up on butter and cheese.

24
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: Now do you buy when you go to the supermarket,

25
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: do you buy the Anchor or do you buy the

26
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: West Gold? Because I find the Anchor is a little

27
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: bit funky tasting and I prefer I prefer the bougie

28
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: West Gold.

29
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: I buy a six pack of Emerson's Pelsoner at the supermarket.

30
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: You don't need better than if you're eating that.

31
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 2: I don't need that. There's a there's a steak in

32
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: every bottle.

33
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: Heather, Hey, what are you hearing about Fontira?

34
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: Oh? Nothing, Well, I mean I'm hearing that there's going

35
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 2: to be an announcement tomorrow. I just wonder what the

36
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: hell it is, because, of course, they came out very recently,

37
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: in fact, last Friday, it's top of my head, and

38
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: announced a fifty percent increase in the milk forecast price.

39
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: I doubt, in fact, I would be totally sure they're

40
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: not going to come out tomorrow and announce another rise

41
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 2: in the milk forecast price. Although they moved from eight

42
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: dollars to eight fifty. The futures market is at eight eighty.

43
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: This is for the season we're in. And I think

44
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: NZX came out late late last week and we're protecting

45
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: nine dollars twenty And I harked back to what I

46
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: said before, that's why the price of dairy comodities domestically

47
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: are probably going to go up. But there is something

48
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: coming from Fonterra tomorrow, Heather. I don't know what it is,

49
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: so I can't wait.

50
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I love a Fonterra announcement, so important

51
