Green but not much grass!
Dairy farmers in the lower North Island are working on protecting next season, according to Federated Farmers dairy chair Richard McIntyre, who farms just north of the Horowhenua township of Levin.
One speaker talked about two adjacent farms he owns; one milking cows, the other raising bulls and beef cattle.
He questioned why industry groups he pays tens of thousands of dollars in levies, say different things about the farms with same outcomes?
“Too much double up and too much farmers’ dollars spent on Hui, not doie and outcomes.”
With DairyNZ’s levy vote looming, farmers may be taking note of such concerns.
