Federated Farmers hails rural banking report
Federated Farmers says the final report into banking competition is a significant step forward for rural New Zealand - and a vindication of the farming sector's concern.
However, not every visitor to the site was left impressed.
One social media post referred to the language and sentiment towards sustainability, and included a photo of car stickers stating, ‘Quit Paris’ – obviously from farmer group Groundswell.
The sticky posting attracted one quick rebuttal from a media company which stated that ‘those stickers were from one group in particular in the advocacy hub, not necessarily a reflection on the rest of the groups represented’.
Some farmers would be wondering where the hub actually stands on the Paris Agreement.
