Abstract

Chapter 6, after reviewing the distinctive domestic organisation of dairying in New Zealand, analyses the long battle by dairy producers to maintain earnings from Britain. After 1945 international dairy markets changed significantly, from shortages caused by the dislocation of World War II to over-supply by the 1960s. In 1958, dairy produce dumping onto the British market led to Britain protecting New Zealand by introducing quotas for other suppliers. By 1961, New Zealand accepted a quota being placed on its dairy exports to Britain. The arrangements for continuation of dairy export quotas after Britain joined the European Economic Community (EEC) are reviewed and found to have been welcomed by the New Zealand government and the dairy industry. Indeed, New Zealand was embarrassed because it exported less than the agreed EEC quotas.
