3 Dairy Industry Roadmap ► This was the first of 10 projects being coordinated by Defra, and applies to the entire liquid milk supply chain, from farm to consumer. ► Dairy processors, farmers and retailers in the UK developed a ‘roadmap’ of environmental improvements with the government.

4 Farm Targets 2010 ► 50% of dairy managed farmland entered into Environmental Stewardship Schemes ► 5-15% uptake of water use efficiency measures ► 65% dairy farmers actively nutrient planning ► 95% of dairy farmers have a manure management plan ► 95% of dairy farmers have Farm Health Plans ► 30 dairy farms piloting on-farm anaerobic digestion ► 100% of dairy farmers, through DairyCo, supporting research into new technologies

5 Processor 2010 targets ► A minimum of 10% recycled plastic in milk bottles ► All processors will meet or beat energy and CO2 reductions of the sector Climate Change greement ► Dairy UK will operate an environmental benchmarking and best practice performance programme. ► Publish an annual sustainability report providing evidence of progress towards targets

6 Retail Targets 2010 ► All major multiple retailers should establish positive, direct (where appropriate)relationships with dairy farmers and processors ► All major retailers should recognise the work of the Roadmap and, where possible, incorporate targets within their own Corporate Responsibility targets, covering points such as greenhouse gas emissions, reductions in energy and water use and reduction in waste going to landfill ► All major retailers should consider the use of technological interventions to reduce CO2 emissions associated with the transport of liquid milk ► Retailers should support supply chain delivery of environmental benefits

7 2015 Targets - Farmers ► Nutrient management by 90% of producers ► 65% of dairy-managed farmland in Stewardship ► More than 20% of producers trialling technology to reduce cattle emissions ► Reduced occurrence of on farm pollution incidents ► Dairy Farmers to be encouraged to calculate carbon footprint

8 2015 Targets - Processors ► 30% addition rates of recycled material in plastic milk bottles ► Large liquid milk processors to have an Environmental Management System ► Remove all HCFC’s at large processors ► All processors to meet or beat energy and CO2 reduction of CCA ► 20% reduction of COD in primary discharge ► 20% reduction in water use ► Zero waste to landfill where environmentally advantageous ► 3 Anaerobic digesters at processing sites

9 2015 Targets - retailers ► Retailers to look to reduce emissions from existing stores ► Retailers to increase the amount of recyclate used and encourage recyclability in packaging

10 2020 Targets ► General improvement across the whole range already stated with emphasis on renewable energy and all new build or new equipment to be resource effficient.
