  9. NZ producer overview • New Zealand farmers primarily do one thing very well - they grow grass.

  10. NZ producer overview • The only decision they have to make is what they feed the pasture to…… • Dairy cows • Sheep • Beef

  11. NZ producer overview • In New Zealand there are: • 5.4 m dairy cows • 4.3 m beef • 39.3 m sheep • 35% of NZ’s export earnings come from pastoral farming (dairy, meat, wool & by products). • Although many of these items are commodities, they have provided some of the most consistent returns in recent years.

  12. NZ meat industry overview • While New Zealand is blessed with plenty of good rainfall and sunshine to grow grass, its geographical location meant getting product to the markets on the other side of the world was a challenge. • Refrigeration provided the first big break-through to allow New Zealand access to markets which had the population base to consume all this meat. • The SS Dunedin shipped the first load of frozen lamb to the UK in 1882.

  13. Meat Quality • NZ’s geographical location and distance from markets has meant our meat processors must deliver a very clean hygienic product to gain the long shelf life to enable product to be transported by sea freight worldwide.

  14. Meat Quality • An outcome of this focus on hygiene is that NZ processors can guarantee chilled (32°F) vacuum packed beef for 100 days and vacuum packed lamb for 70 days. • To date no NZ meat plant has had a meat recall or occurrence for e-coli H 0157. • This is an enviable record as NZ exports 75% of all the beef it processes and 85% of all lamb processed.

  15. NZ meat industry overview • New Zealand (NZ) is the 5th largest exporter of beef with around 7% (402,300 MT) of world volume.

  16. NZ meat industry overview • NZ is the largest exporter of sheepmeats with around 55% (358,000MT) of world volume.

  17. NZ meat industry overview • Of the beef, 7% (28,000MT) was exported vacuum packed and chilled (32°F). • Of sheepmeats, the quantity exported vacuum packed and chilled was 16% (57,280MT). • All beef and lamb is electrically stimulated to ensure uniformity of aging, meat conditioning and consistency of eating quality.

  18. NZ meat industry overview • The North American market is very important to NZ with 14% of all lamb and 59% of all beef exported, destined for this market sector. • To gain access to the best paying export markets in the world (those markets requiring EU & USDA licensing), NZ has had to become a world leader in hygienic meat processing.

  19. Productivity • NZ’s relatively high cost of labour has meant our productivity must be very good for us to be competitive in world markets. • Independent studies have proven that NZ has some of the best productivity statistics in the world. • Beef slaughter 2.5 head/man/hr • Lamb slaughter 10 head/man/hr (Sticker to weigh grade – all workers in)

  20. Competitive Advantage • New Zealand’s isolation has been turned around from being a weakness to a strength. • The NZ meat industry has met and exceeded all of the EU and USDA demands placed on it to gain and retain access to all the best meat markets in the world.

  21. Differences • Some of the major differences between NZ meat processing and other countries meat processors include: • All livestock are washed prior to slaughter • There is no carcass pasteurisation or de-contamination sprays after slaughter • Smaller, slower speed process lines • Pay rates that reflect skill and performance • Highly productive • Clean, environmentally friendly plants • No social impact in the community • Self regulating industry

  22. Where does ProAnd fit in? • Since 1984, ProAnd Ltd has been a major influence in the design of innovative meat processing systems in New Zealand. • Over 80% of all new plants built in NZ in the last 10 years have been designed by ProAnd. • The technology that makes NZ a world leader in meat processing is what ProAnd offers all our customers – hygienic, highly efficient, cost effective process design.

  23. Introduction • ProAnd Ltd was started by Nook Yule and Mike Nidd. • Twenty years later, ProAnd is a successful meat process and engineering design consultancy employing 12 staff and operating through out the world. • We focus on red meat only - ovine, bovine, cervidae, caprine, ratites. We have no experience with poultry or fish. • Our office is in Feilding, New Zealand. • We have a sister company in Sydney, Australia.
