Organic Sector Unites for Fair Cost Recovery Under New Organic Regulatory Regime.

MPI’s current organic cost recovery proposal risks undermining the very businesses it seeks to support. OANZ’s recent submission, informed by sector-wide engagement through workshops, surveys, and modelling calls for a fair, revenue-based tiered levy that protects small operators, avoids duplication, and aligns with international best practice. Our recommendations also include rejecting a blanket export levy, phasing in fees, and ensuring enforcement costs are borne by non-compliant operators.
