Sheep and beef farmers appear contented with their elected officials at least.

Beef and Lamb NZ farmer directors George Tatham (Eastern North Island) and Andrew Morrison (Southern South Island) were both re-elected unopposed to the producer board.

Similarly incumbent Silver Fern Farms directors Dan Jex-Blake and Richard Young have been re-appointed to the Silver Fern Farms Co-operative board without the need for an election after no nominations were received.

The two farmer directors were elected in 2013 under the banner of industry reform and backed by Meat Industry Excellence.

Since their election SFF has sold half its processing business to Chinese retailer and meat processor Shanghai Maling for $267 million.

That jointly-owned entity has been renamed SFF Ltd, with the other half of the business owned by SFF Co-op.

Jex-Blake and Young have beem appointed co-operative representatives on the board of SFF Ltd.
