Become a Shareholder

Becoming a Shareholder of the MDF!

Shareholders of the MDF co-operative help contribute to the research and demonstration projects conducted on-farm, aiming to improve profitability and sustainability of dairy farming in the Macalister Irrigation District.

To become a shareholder, you’ll need to buy a minimum of 50 shares @ 50 cents a share- and at just $25, you’ll be joining with 250 other active shareholders in the district to share the latest innovations and learnings from the farm.

Each purchase of shares is a once-off payment. The MDF does not charge annual fees, nor does it pay cash dividends. All dividends are delivered to shareholders in the form of new knowledge-the results of all MDF’s research and demonstration projects.
