The chief executive of Fonterra reviews the very positive 2020 Interim Result which has seen profit up, debt down and the forecast milk price staying (thankfully) where it is.

Jacinda Ardern:

We look at the Government's economy rescue package and ask what's in it for big business to keep jobs. We also ask if the Government is going to cut farming some slack in regards to environmental reforms in light of a looming world recession.
