Government winter grazing advice leaves farmers confused after months of planning

Supplied New guidance from the Ministry for Primary Industries to ensure winter grazing doesn t result in scenes like this, has come too late and replicates industry guidance. Farmers are confused about Government advice on how to prepare for winter grazing, in order to avoid controversial scenes of cows in mud. Beef and Lamb North Island general manager Corina Jordan said the guidance from the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) came too late and replicated work done by industry bodies to proactively plan and manage winter grazing practices. The guidance comes a month after the Government announced a pause in the implementation of new winter grazing rules until May next year. The pause came after farmers expressed concern about the time given to put rules into practice, and that some rules were impractical and unworkable.

Beef+Lamb boss says it s been a tough year for farmers

Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor told about 130 farmers via a livestream video link that the Government had decided to defer the winter grazing rules until May 2022. “’We have taken on board the advice from the Southland Advisory Group and have decided to park the changes for a year,’’ O’Connor said. O’Connor said the Government needed time to work through the issues around slope, pugging rules and sowing dates, and it would involve ‘’more than tweaks’’. “There is still a focus on no further water degradation and restoring water quality,’’ O’Connor said. Farmers have expressed their frustrations around the unworkable winter grazing rules with hundreds attending a rally at the Southern Field Days site in mid-February.
