This Week on the Money: We look at Australian Dairy Farmers who are taking large reductions in prices for their milk. Big processors Murray Goulburn and Fonterra announced the potentially retrospective price cuts, creating turmoil in the Industry. Also on the show: the sluggish economy and whether the Reserve Bank will act on interest rates again. We also investigate Bill Shorten’s Medicare announcement to see how it will impact GPs. And there’s been a breakthrough in solar cells that could see solar roof panels double in power.
