Commitment 3: Providing best care for animals

We commit to striving for health, welfare and best care for all our animals throughout their lives.

The health and wellbeing of animals is critical to the Australian dairy industry. Appropriate care for our animals is essential not only to the success of every farming business, but our moral responsibility. It is an expectation of our customers and stakeholders.

It is our commitment to continue to improve our practices and report transparently on how we are progressing and where we need to do more.

Our Goals

The 2030 goal we have set for ourselves around animal welfare in the Australian Dairy Industry Sustainability Framework is to:

  • Provide best care for all animals for whole of life (Framework Goal 7). Targets include: compliance with welfare guidelines, animal care practices, consumer perceptions of dairy animal welfare and antimicrobial stewardship (Framework Goal 8).
