NATIONAL DAIRY CONFERENCE
WINTER PRODUCTION NOT FAVOURED REMIT LOST BY SUBSTANTIAL MAJORITY [By Telegraph—Press Association] HAMILTON, 24th June.. " The encouragement of winter production of butterfat was not favoured by the National Dairy Conference this morning when a remit from the Heretaunga Co-operative Dairy Company urging the payment of a premium for winter butter was lost by a substantial majority. In order that winter production of cream might be encouraged so as to maintain a winter supply, both for the local and export trade, the Heretaunga Company urged the Federation to approach the Government requesting a premium be paid for butter manufactured in the winter months. “We want a little recreation, and the only time we cah get it id during the winter” said a delegate, who added that winter production would mean iiicreased overhead. Other speakers who voiced opposition to the remit contended that it was necessary to seed fields during the winter period in order that they might be able to carry maximum pasture during the spring months.
