TFGA calls Simplot growers’meetings
Farmers who grow peas and potatoes for Simplot in Tasmania are being urged to attend price negotiation meetings at Deloraine in the coming two weeks.
The Tasmanian Farmers and Graziers Association has two committees that has been negotiating with Simplot over the coming season’s prices.
Simplot has put an offer on the table for both peas and potatoes and the TFGA says it is important that growers discuss them.
The TFGA Simplot potato growers meeting will be held on Thursday, May 29 from 5.30pm at the Deloraine Rotary building near the community centre.
The TFGA Simplot pea growers meeting will be held a week later, on Thursday, June 5 from 7.30pm at the Deloraine Rotary building.
