New Zealand's biggest commodity export - dairy products - has been hampered by low global prices as European and North American farmers produce more.
Dairy prices have recovered somewhat from last year's slump, and NZX futures indicate prices at the upcoming GlobalDairyTrade auction will rise between 3 per cent and 5 per cent.
Today's data show seafood prices led local gains, up 8.2 per cent with a notable increase in the price of hoki and squid.
NZX-listed fishing group Sanford has previously said the hoki catch has been lower as it tries to align supply withy demand.
There was broad-based strength across all the major categories. However, producers won't be celebrating too loudly.
Dairy prices rose 4.8 per cent in June, with cheese prices up 9.2 per cent, skim milk powder gaining 8.4 per cent and whole milk powder increasing 3.7 per cent.
ANZ's Williams said skim milk prices are catching up with those in Europe, while whole milk prices were bolstered by the lower seasonal supply from New Zealand.
Horticulture prices extended their gain, up 4.2 per cent as new season cops reached markets in Europe and Asia, while meat prices increased 2.6 per cent due to a smaller lamb crop. Forestry prices increased 1.7 per cent in June and aluminium prices were up 2.3 per cent in the month.
