DairyNZ Urges Farmers to Plan for Higher Costs in 2026/27 Season
Farmers should be cautiously optimistic as the 2026/27 season kicks off, says DairyNZ.
He suggests that the cuddling up and appeasement to the current Labour Government by – among others – the selfappointed Farm Leaders Group, DairyNZ, Beef+Lamb NZ and the Primary Sector Council may find it somewhat difficult, after having to wipe the brown stuff from their collective noses, in dealing with a new National-led government.
He reckons it might be time for a number of these ‘Benedict Arnolds’ to fall on their swords before their heads are cut off by the farmer groups they have purported to represent and by a less than impressed new administration in power. Food for thought!
