The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Podcast tekijän mukaan Newstalk ZB - Maanantaisin
Rising concerns from the farming sector as more land is sold off for forestry. Beef + Lamb's new research reveals more than 51,000 hectares have been sold since the end of 2022. It estimates almost one million stock units are lost for every 100,000 hectares planted. Chair Kate Acland told Mike Hosking the issue isn’t forestry as such, but rather the ETS settings.. She says there absolutely is a place for trees and forestry within farming, they just need some sensible limits. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
