The weekend s storm forced hundreds to evacuate, caused widespread damage to infrastructure including roads and bridges, and devastated farms in Buller, West Coast, Nelson, Tasman, and Marlborough - as well as causing more sporadic damage in surrounding regions.
The downpours brought Marlborough s largest floods on record.
Federated Farmers Marlborough president Scott Adams said more than 300mm had fallen on his sheep farm near the Wairau River in 48 hours, and parts were devastated.
We re probably looking at between $100,000 and $250,000 worth of damage to land and infrastructure, so it s a lot of hard work and a lot of money. ....

Humphrey Askin, who has a small farm in Grassmere, south Marlborough, said the season had been incredibly dry. ....

'Eye-watering' costs or 'peanuts': Depends what side of the freshwater fence you're on

The programme had so far been allocated $2.7m from the Government and $1.7m from the council. It was hoped farmers would contribute another $1.3m in cash or through “in-kind” work.
Oliver said farmers could use that money, and that would essentially balance out any costs they might incur in getting checked.

Federated Farmers Marlborough chair Phillip Neal at the meeting.
The money could be used to help landowners fence their stock from waterways, plant natives, or purchase poo-eating dung beetles.
“What it is, is a gesture of acknowledgement that there is pain in the rural community and that [these rules create] additional costs over and above the ‘business as usual’, and that the rest of New Zealand should help out.
