Massey University trials superior beef genetics in dairy farms with Beef+Lamb NZ
Massey University has begun trialling the use of superior beef genetics in its two dairy farms as part of Beef + Lamb New Zealand's dairy beef progeny test.
The supposed agricultural-based university seems to be a hive for greenie academics who harbour strong anti-farming sentiments. It appears another under-worked Massey academic is on a crusade to bag farming. A group of campaigners led by one Marnie Prickett have launched a road trip flying a 'Choose Clean Water' campaign banner. Prickett, a Massey undergraduate, said the intention is to highlight people's stories about how they could no longer use degraded waterways for recreation or food gathering. Farming was blamed in four of the campaign's online stories about degradation of rivers in the North and South Islands.
