Zealand Has Drop" In Dairy Exports

AUCKLAND, N. Z.. Dec. 15- (OP)-—A sharp fall in exports oi butler and cheese during the open- ing months of the new season re- flects the serious decline in dairy production which has occurred throughout New Zealand. Shipments of bmic" for August and September are 3,305 tons low- er at 19,308 tons in comparison with the opening months oi last season, while the export oi cheese in the same period has declined by 39o tons w 12.142 tons. Compared with the 1937-38 sea- son, September shipments oi but- ter are down by 2.656 tons. or 22 per cent. while those for the two months have fallen by 14.5 per cent. The reduction in cheese is less marked, September shipments being 611 tons lower. or approxi- rnately nine per cent. and ior 01.". two months there is a decrease 0f a little more than three per cent. On a. butter-fat basis grading ii;- urea ion- August revealed a de-

crease oi 6.5 per cent in produc- i

lion. while for the two months the decrease rose to i5 per cent

comparison with. the ‘pfﬂtﬁdllilrﬂl “Blackeut”

season.

‘Hie main reason ior the decline has been the. late New Zealanxi spring and retarded pasture growth. Recent rains ‘have ai- ready stimulated pastures and, providing cold drying winds do not again intervene, production should improve. However. in any V159 the season is likely to reach a. lal- er flush.
