15 2. Commodity Traders Heavy reliance (>50%) on single sector

16 Traders 1. Some profit from volatility Opposite direction from industry goals 2. Demonstrate desire to drop prices Last two years Inconsistent with market messages Exporters worked hard to combat this 3. Some want long term value Need to choose partners wisely

17 3. Regulatory Hurdles Typical with APEC markets

18 Regulatory Hurdles Many different hurdles regularly raised Increased food safety focus More expected from Asian countries

19 NZ s Reputation Freedom from many diseases Strong regulatory compliance But could still get caught up with regulatory barriers DINZ must maintain close relationship with regulators (MPI and MFAT) Voice of NZ deer industry
