Silver Fern Farms roadshow highlights global demand
The second event in the Silver Fern Farms ‘Pasture to Plate Roadshow’ landed in Feilding last week, headed by chair and King Country farmer, Anna Nelson, and chief executive Dan Boulton.
Chair Rob Hewett apparently shut down questions on the march of forestry being escalated by companies like SFF by instead simply singing his own praises in a valedictory-type speech.
One farmer asked the silently stone-faced board line-up, 'what happens to carbon zero beef when we literally run out of offsets, do we keep planting trees until there is no land for beef?'
The question still echoes around the hills, unanswered.
