Explanation:
Today large flocks of sheep are mustered, inspected and possibly treated for parasites such as lice before shearing can start.then shorn by professional shearing teams working eight-hour days, most often in spring, by machine shearing. These contract-teams consist of shearers, shed hands and a cook (in the more isolated areas). Their working hours and wages are regulated by industry awards. A working day starts at 7:30 am and the day is divided into four "runs" of two hours each. "Smoko" breaks are a half-hour each and a lunch break is taken at midday for one hour. Most shearers are paid on a piece-rate per sheep. Shearers who "tally" more than 200 sheep per day are known as "gun shearers". Typical mass shearing of sheep today follows a well-defined workflow:
remove the wool
throw the fleece onto the wool table
skirt, roll and class the fleece
place it in the appropriate wool bin
press and store the wool until it is transported.
In 1984 Australia became the last country in the world to permit the use of wide combs, due to previous Australian Workers' Union rules. Although they were once rare in sheds, women now take a large part in the shearing industry by working as pressers, wool rollers, rouseabouts, wool classers and shearers
DFNZ was established as a pure dairy farming investment vehicle to allow investors the opportunity to access a combination of cash-on-cash returns and the potential capital growth afforded by the sector.
There is a finite amount of suitable land for low cost dairy production, which supports the potential for earnings and capital growth.
Whilst initially set up with a mixture of NZ and offshore equity, the long-term vision is to be mostly NZ-owned.
DFNZ owns seven high quality dairy farms and leases one block.
As a matter of priority DFNZ plans to list on the NZX. To achieve a successful listing the company needs to have a larger equity base than it currently has. Directors are actively pursuing a range of alternative strategies to enlarge the company.
DFNZ targets the acquisition of farms in some of the most favourable dairy producing areas in the world: Canterbury, Otago and Southland.
These areas demonstrate the following key characteristics:
Highly productive pastoral regions, typically growing more grass;
Least variability in production due to climatic and / or irrigation resources; and
Established and proven regions with significant dairy infrastructure.
