Two farmer-elected DairyNZ seats and one key committee member position open.

There are only a few days left for farmers to get their nominations in for DairyNZ’s board of director elections.

This year there are three governance opportunities available, with two farmer-elected DairyNZ board of director positions and one directors’ remuneration committee member position.

DairyNZ chair Jim van der Poel said joining the board is a unique experience and he encourages farmers to consider this opportunity.

“The roles allow you to work with other passionate farmers and independent directors, to help ensure dairy farmers and our sector have a great future, while ensuring our new DairyNZ strategy gets delivered.

“As a board we also engage with a range of stakeholders and policy makers and use our networks to connect with farmers across the country.”

Ideal candidates will have a strong understanding of farm systems, research, policy and advocacy, good networks and strong business and finance skills, along with governance experience.

All farmers paying a levy on milksolids to DairyNZ are eligible to stand for the board of directors and the remuneration committee.

Candidates must be nominated by two DairyNZ levy payers.

Candidate nominations for all three positions must be received by the returning officer by noon on Friday, August 9.

If an election is confirmed, farmer voting will take place during September and October, with the successful candidates announced at DairyNZ’s annual general meeting on October 22 in Canterbury.
