[QUOTE="rdst_1, post: 2344201, member: 25986"] Not only Kiwis and Aussies, but even Europe and US have been trying to sell their milk products here. US sells milk products in China very successfully. India, despite being one of the largest producers of milk (due to the sheer number of cattle we have), doesn't have enough milk. Also, our eating habits are very different, where many of us, including me, will shun powdered milk and try to find fresh milk only, as it should be. All these countries, produce way more milk and meat than they can consume, especially New Zealand and Australia. Also, due to no religious association of cows, these countries have worked on their genetics by culling most of the low producing animals and now they have very high production animals only. With the growth in veganism and dairy alternatives, plus the increase in production, these countries are facing losses in the dairy industry every year, which are then covered through government subsidies. So they are hell bent on finding alternative markets. Just last year, US could've made big inroads into India, when the Animal Husbandry ministry nearly allowed their entry if not for the ruckus created by the Indian dairy and poultry farmers. They will continue to face this resistance and if the recent past has taught us anything, it's difficult for any govt to get past our farmers. They might not have the money lobbying powers of the industry, but they have their own strength in unity. European nations are the only ones going the smart and right route. They have ordered their dairy farmers to reduce their herd sizes in accordance to the demands. Netherlands, which is one of the biggest dairy producers have just passed this law/verdict, limiting milk production for every farm and to reduce that number in the coming years and to stop subsidizing excessive production from this year onwards.
