The dairy giant Fonterra has laid out a range of options to strengthen its financial structure, but remains committed to co-operative ownership. The country's biggest company says the aim is to balance farmer ownership, milk supply, and secure its financial future.

It has outlined a range of options for shareholders to consider including dual share structures to allow outside involvement, splitting the co-op between supply and processing businesses, and different classes of shares. RNZ Business Editor Gyles Beckford.
