"There are almost five million milking cows in the country and many, many people rely on their ability to produce to survive. My grandparents and uncles have farmed their entire life and it's a way of life that my family holds onto strongly. I would be so thankful to take my knowledge and passion to the next step here at Fonterra Limited as part of your dynamic team."

"New Zealand is booming with agriculture like sheep farming, fruit and vegetable production, and meat products. But it is very obvious that the dairy industry is what keeps the entire ag industry afloat here. I love the fact that Fonterra Limited is owned and operated by the farmers, who are the true boots on the ground."

As you answer this question, it's important to remember that dairy is more than just milk! Dairy products include milk beverages, cheese, butter, ice cream, yogurt, dry milk products, condensed milk, and even whey products which are all produced by Fonterra. Some important facts you can cite in your answer are that the dairy sector contributes over 10 billion to New Zealand's economy annually and that the country itself has one of the highest milk consumption rates in the world.
