Nope. We produce regular, full jersey and a2 milk in the valley I live in. The local farmer owned manufacturer processes it and we pay maybe 20-40 cents per liter price difference for the different milks. Their product is sold both around the state and with a fair bit of business exporting to china. If you pay more your local milk industry just lacks competition. This is in Australia btw, my parents actually agist land to Mark the local young bloke who took up the reigns from many of the aging dairy farmers and leased their lands/consolidated their operations. He runs herds of dairy cattle and wagyu beef up and down the valley. Keeps the place looking good, doesn't over stock it either like the dogs fontera or some of those other kiwi dairy groups.
