NEW ZEALAND GHEE
DEVELOPING MARKETS The Department of Industries and Commerce has been endeavouring to open up and develop a market for New Zealand ghee in the East and elsewhere. Last year it sent out a number of samples of ghee, prepared in different ways and from different types of butter, to India. Burma, Ceylon, Britisn Malaya, Dutch East Indies, Hong Kong China and Fiji. Reports were received on these samples and, on the basis of the reports, further sets of samples have been prepared by the Dairy Research Institute, which was also responsible for the preparation of the samples previously sent, and the Department has now arranged for these to be dispatched to the same countries for the purposes of further report on the suitability of the different types of ghee for the individual markets. When these reports are received the Department should be in a position to know more or less denitely whether New Zealand is able to produce types of ghee which will satisfy the requirements of the different markets.
