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.
