Navigating Dairy Costs: Trends, Investments & Insights for 2025

On this week’s podcast, there’s a very sobering milk market report from Chris Walkland following several drops announced this week. Kathryn Rowland and Marcus Doig from Kite Consulting join us to review dairy production costs and explore the trends we’re seeing in the data, including insights on investments and funding strategies. We’re also pleased to welcome southwest farmer Andrew Fry, who talks through his own investment strategy—including the economics behind adopting robotic milking and how it’s reshaped operations on his family farm.
