NORTHLAND FARMERS are calling for a revision of the Hikurangi Flood Control Plan after being hit with a third 100-year flood in five years.

Starting a family provided the impetus for 2012 Northland Sharemilker/Equity Farmers of the Year, Miles Harrison and Lucy Heffernan, to commit to the dairy industry.

A daily dose of dairy nutrition will be in the timetable for students at Northland's Kaiwaka Primary School from next month as the school becomes one of the first to take part in Fonterra Milk for Schools.
