Farmers Warned Over Track Dangers After Wairarapa Floods
The terrible floods that hit the Wairarapa may have subsided, but the danger to farmers still exists, according to local Federated Farmers president Rob Hickson.
Following a court decision requiring Southland farmers to gain resource consent to farm lawfully, Southland Fed Farmers have called for locals to boycott F&G and deny anglers access across their land.
This old mutt’s been around long enough to remember the last time F&G’s attacks on farmers reached a head; in 2014 farmers right across NZ joined Rural News’ ‘Lock the Gate!’ campaign to deny F&G members access to their land.
Then, as now, F&G whined that it was ‘unfair’, but then, as now, they found out what happened when you push farmers too far – access denied!!
