Banks running out of credit with fed-up rural communities as branch closures continue

ASB planned to reduce hours at Matamata, Te Awamutu and Cambridge and close its Morrinsville branch in March. ANZ was reducing its Te Kūiti branch from a five-day operation to Tuesday to Thursday, from April 21. Waikato Federated Farmers President Jacqui Hahn, who farms near Te Kūiti, said it was a double blow for her rural community. Cheques had already been removed as a method for people to bank and poor internet service in rural areas made it difficult for people to connect with their banks online. DOMINICO ZAPATA/STUFF Kiwibank closures such as Matamata are a big loss to rural communities.

Difficult tasks ahead say Waikato Farmers following climate commission s report

STUFF Jacinda Ardern and James Shaw on what the Government will do about the Climate Change Commission s draft plan for slashing New Zealand s emissions. Many farms would need to change their management style, using smaller herds, better breeding, precision fertiliser use and other tactics to keep milk and meat production the same while shrinking methane emissions, the commission said. Waikato federated farmer president Jacqui Hahn​ said reducing herd numbers by 15 per cent would be difficult. The dairy, sheep and beef farmer has stock in Te Kūiti and Benneydale. “It’s saying whatever we produce now, we can make the same amount of money off, but generally your productivity has to go up just to survive.”
