Dairy NZ says targeted payments are the best solution to help farmers affected by Cyclone Gabrielle.
The Government has approved an additional $23 million to help those affected, raising the total to $78 million.
More than half of the applicants have already been approved, with $37 million paid out already.
Farmer-elected director Jacqueline Rowarth told Tim Dower throwing money at the problem isn't always the best option.
She says we should bring in experts to point out where the money can be used best.
