Well, when they've done all that methane vaccine, probio and uv treatment on the milk and meat, will it all be so healthy for me to eat?

Really I don't want their treated meated,

I'd much prefer the original natural farm fare.

But, one wonders, in their new regime, will any organic producers actually survive?

Will there be any natural products left to keep me alive?

It takes a good portion of good humour to stomach that sort of institutionalised nonsense on a Sunday morning. Good on you to dig deeper, as depressing as it is.

Great bit of investigating. I note this morning's Sunday Star Times has a lengthy piece on 'Dirty Politics 2' . All anti elite media - including yourself - and myself, need to be aware.

Goodness gracious! It is true - there is only so much reality one can stomach in a day.

And like there is nothing in the Treaty Principles Bill Mr Luxton likes he does sooo much like the $'s in the Paris Accord the middle level 'executive' he be.

These people are insane. Literally tilting at windmills. Carbon is good for plants having to sift through 10,000 molecules to find 3.5 of carbon (approx) so increasing it a bit increases growth as greenhouse growers know well. Higher levels of Co2 also means more plant growth per unit of water used. Effectively increasing rainfall. What does that mean at the margins of the deserts?? It also raises the treeline, potentially turning grasslands into forests. That's not the end to it. But the way they measure capture is nuts too. Good farming practice can increase topsoil which is Co2 capture. But this is excluded. Dumb and dumber.

Antarctica is gaining ice, an inconvenient fact.

More CO2 seems like a bloody good deal all around to me.

I've looked at AgriZero previously and thought it was a real climate change grift.

This is an excellent article, John ... my punt (pun intended) on the ex-Ferryman -- Thomas Davis?

What an incredible waste of time, effort and especially public money! I can't see how they are going to be able to extricate themselves from just the sheer stupidity of it all. What sort of logic are they planning to use to shut it all down - which they surley must eventually. What will possibly be their logic for all of this waste?

The nzgovtcorp was infested with satanists from the inception of this nation. Now we see the fruition of this demonic cults agenda. It is now impossible to believe that antichristopher luxon is anything more than an appointed globalist patsy pushing foreign interests. This and the democide makes all nzgovtcorp treasonous murderers. When will NZ renounce such foulness?

Clarification...the referenced "ex-Ferryman" is not the AgriZero CEO Wayne McNee, who's smiling cherubic face features first.

I was a paid subscriber to Bernard Hickey's The Kaka for a while - he had some good insights but he did keep banging on about how we must kowtow to the God of the EU or else no one will buy our farm exports

Hickey is not stupid. But he’s a Wokester. And Woke is not confined to sociological/cultural elements of human societies. It comes with it’s own economic mysticisms - that food/housing/public infrastructure etc will all (just) magically appear, without the laudable grunt of those who make material things and create our world. Print money and the fun will come, in the World According to Hickey

Well, it comes down to the question, is spending to save the environment an investment?

Our economist friend is all for increasing taxes so that we can save the planet.....

A quick search for "golf, net zero" reveals a strong alignment with the globalist fraud.

More great digging John. We should change your name to Elon and set you loose. Although if you joined the Net Zero & Iwi grifting, you could become as rich as Mr Musk…. But who could sell their soul to peddle such untruths? Well, plenty of folk it would seem when the price is right…

Here again we have Rob Hewitt as Chairman of this board. The man appointed to the Bremworth Board as Chair to get it back on track, The man who is Chair of Farmlands, a farmer owned Coop which is steadily going down the girgler from a once profitable business. I fear everything he is involved with is not for the betterment of farmers.
