Meaghan Johnston is currently the milk supply manager for Bega based at the Koroit Site. Although as you may have noticed, this is only Part 1 of this incredible story!!! Meaghan grew up in Melbourne and undertook an Ag Science degree specializing in Milk Quality. Undertaking work experience at the Murray Goulburn Factory in Koroit. It was here she fell in love with dairy more broadly as well as milk quality, but is also where her love for the the Murray Goulburn Co-op began, in her words, it was the farmers' company. So for Part 1 she gives us an insight into her experiences getting into the dairy industry, her passion for Murray Goulburn, what the industry looked like in those days, the impacts of deregulation and the drought and sets the scene for the eventual demise of Murray Goulburn.
Next week for the conclusion of this story she goes into the milk crash, how she dealt with the fall out, the change of ownership to Saputo and then eventually her move to Bega, back to her home.
