[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 7482882, member: 946"] Most milk factories here are shut down or run at low capacity for big chunks of time. There is a bit of focus trying to get more winter milk, but it costs more to produce so they have to pay more to the farmer but can't charge more for the finished product as a result. I was told once that there were more people working on site at Fonterra's Clandeboye factory during it's 2 month shutdown than when it was at peak. I think the factory goes from 13 million litres a day at peak to just a couple of million on the shoulders. Life would be a lot easier if it was a level profile 365 days a year but I don't think it will ever happen. [/QUOTE]
