Major Victorian agricultural companies including Fonterra, Costa Group and Noumi say massive flooding across the state has disrupted operations.

Dairy processor Fonterra, fruit and vegetable grower Costa Group and Noumi, formerly known as Freedom Foods, which makes plant-based products such as soy milk, all warned that road closures would affect their businesses.Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Treasurer Jim Chalmers said the disruptions would push up supermarket prices and cause inflation to be worse than expected.

“All of our employees are safe, and we are providing support to those employees who may have been personally impacted,” the company said. “Our priority is, as always, our people first. We have communicated to our Shepparton staff that attendance at the factory is at their own discretion, on the proviso that they can travel to and from work safely,” Mr Giles said.
