Miles Hurrell:

Fonterra's chief executive offers an update on plans to lift Fonterra's performance - which include taking stock of the business, getting the basics right, dropping its volume-based ambition, living within its means, delivering a respectable return on capital and ensuring more realistic forecasting.
