Guy Barnett,Minister for Primary Industries and Water
Congratulations to Active Dairies Pty Ltd, owned by Grant and Kim Archer, named the 2020 ANZ Tasmanian Dairy Business of the Year.
This is the fourth time the Archers have won the Award, which is testament to the strength of their business and what they add to Tasmania’s dairy industry.
The Tasmanian Government is a strong supporter of the industry as it supports thousands of jobs across the state, and we want to ensure it remains strong in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
That’s why we are investing more than $150 million in our comprehensive Agri-Food Plan that will grow a competitive, innovative, sustainable and profitable farming sector for years to come, as we implement our plan to increase the farm gate value of agriculture to $10 billion by 2050.
The industry has an even brighter future in Tasmania, and I look forward to the rest of the award winners being announced across the next few months.
