"New Zealand dairy farmers are about to get a record multi-billion dollar, tax-free payout of around NZ$3.9 billion, which will hit their bank accounts on Tuesday."
"The payout comes from Fonterra Cooperative Group, the world's biggest dairy exporter, as it makes dividend payments and returns proceeds from the sale of its Mainland Group consumer unit."
"Despite the financial windfall, farmers may need every cent of it as the war in Iran drives up fuel and fertiliser costs, threatening to squeeze margins."
