Federated Farmers Urges Fast Action on Canterbury Local Government Reform
Federated Farmers is urging Canterbury's council leaders to move quickly on local government reform.
The two-day event was aimed at farming organisations making 'a team ag' approach to improve outcomes for farmers.
Labour was flogged by farmers at the last general election and National won back the traditionally blue seats.
But Labour isn't resting on its laurels and is keen to improve its standing among farmers. What this means is National should not take the farming vote for granted.
The coalition Government has done a lot during the first eight months in office for the rural sector but there's still more needs doing.
