Farmgirl: UK Lord seriously recommending turning veggie to save the planet
http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/10/uk-lord-seriously-recommending-turning.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. UK Lord seriously recommending turning veggie to save the planet. It really is frightening when British Government is influenced by the likes of Lord Nicholas Stern, a so called 'academic' and economist who authored the highly influential Stern Review on the economics of climate change. The man is now suggesting seriously that we all turn veggie - and he has some support for his manic views. This from Farmers Weekly UK:. Let's...

Farmgirl: Farmers and Fonterra need to be tougher on those practising calf cruelty
http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/09/farmers-and-fonterra-need-to-be-tougher.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Farmers and Fonterra need to be tougher on those practising calf cruelty. Whether or not MAF finds there is a case to answer of calf cruelty on a Fonterra supplier's farm in the King Country, Fonterra must move quickly to get rid of any taint on their reputation. For an industry to thrive on its wholesome image, it needs farmers to keep an eye out for mistreatment or any practices that could threaten their bottom line. Expan...

Farmgirl: More annihilation of British Farmers rights
http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/07/more-annihilation-of-british-farmers.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Wednesday, July 8, 2009. More annihilation of British Farmers rights. Our poor old British counterparts are suffering yet more draconian public whims with the news this week that a dairy farmer who happened to be grazing his cows in a field with a public access walkway through it, will face $1 million pounds in damages for injuries received by a walker after she was attacked by cattle in Cumbria in 2003. It is a concern that following a recent court case ...

Farmgirl: Farmers tired of hearing the same old speel from the top
http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/07/farmers-tired-of-hearing-same-old-speel.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Thursday, July 9, 2009. Farmers tired of hearing the same old speel from the top. Farmgirl was more than a little dismissive of David Carter's speech to the Federated Farmers conference this week. He told us to, "adopt new ideas, abandon old ways of thinking and embrace different farming methods".blah, blah, blah. This sentence has been trotted out by every agricultural minister since butter was churned by hand. It means nothing and it's not helpful.

http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/10/ferriers-paycut-timely-warning-to-other.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Ferrier's paycut a timely warning to other agricultural businesses. Well done Fonterra and well done Andrew Ferrier on taking a whopping great pay cut of $360 000 even if his salary is in the realms of fantasy at $3.62 million a year. Have a read of this blog written by Rick Newman in the US regarding the trend upwards of CEO salaries in the States despite the gloomy economic conditions:. Analysis of HP's annual proxy filings.

Farmgirl: Throw the bunnies!
http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/10/throw-bunnies.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Thursday, October 22, 2009. For * * sake! If New Zealand rated on a political correctness scale (Farmgirl's pet hate) we would be number one in the world, but sadly it's not an accolade we want. The latest debacle featuring the SPCA who have stood in and spoilt the farm kiddies fun at the annual Waiau pig hunting weekend by outlawing dead bunny throwing is enough to have you bashing a bunnies head against the proverbial brick wall. Im XChequer from Lincol...

http://farmgirllive.blogspot.com/2009/07/silver-fern-farms-money-raising-thinly.html
A forum on all things agricultural and political. Wednesday, July 15, 2009. Silver Fern Farms money raising a thinly veiled glossover of Richmond fiasco. You have to feel for SFF shareholders. Now CEO Keith Cooper is asking them to stump up with $128 million, apparently in the name of forward progress in the UK consumer market. But why do the restructuring in the first place? Farmgirl hopes that SFF farmer shareholders voice their concerns over the restructuring as it is more than a little flawed. It's f...
