Drought Support for Dairy Farmers

As part of the Victorian Government drought support packages for farmers, Dairy Food Safety Victoria (DFSV) has been allocated funding to provide a discount on farm licence fees.

From 1 October 2025 through to 30 June 2026, the farm licence fee will be discounted from $0.0001795 to $0.0001185 per litre, representing a 34% discount over the period.

Direct communication has been sent to all raw milk receiving companies and should be reflected in remittances/invoices from the company receiving raw milk from farms, over the stated period.
