OPINION: Across rural conversations, we're heading the same tune: crisis.
Last month, when the Government announcement that it will spen $339 million researching technological advancements, including methane inhibitors for the ag sector, Greenpece was furious.

So why has the Ardern Government done this?
Because New Zealand's farming sector continues to perform for the nation's economy while maintaining our world-leading, efficient dairy carbon footprint.
