NZX Agrifax is a commercial information service which provides New Zealand agricultural prices and other primary product prices using an extensive agricultural price database. Our database includes New Zealand lamb prices, beef prices, and venison prices, New Zealand wheat prices, dairy product prices including butter, casein and skim milk prices, New Zealand wool prices, forestry log prices, pine log prices, rural finance, fish prices and more.

The Dairy Payout Indicator calculates the theoretical dairy payout using the season to date international commodity prices and the $NZ/$US exchange rate.
You can change any or all of these input figures and test their impact on the theoretical payout figure (c/kg milk solids) by clicking the "CALCULATE" button. Return to the default values by clicking the "RESET" button.
