Just a thought, when the price of cheese and dairy went up at the supermarket and people asked why we as a dairy producing nation have to pay so much for dairy, fontera etc came back at us and said, "that's what we get world wide so that's what you have to pay" , so with more trade available will dairy companies get more for there products and we the general public will just pay more, just thinking out loud.
