Weekly current affairs from Television New Zealand (TVNZ).

  • 1Farming is undergoing one of its worst financial crises in many years. The main cause is high inflation, high interest rates and a strong New Zealand dollar. Tomorrow, Supplementary Minimum Prices (SMPs) will disappear, leaving farmers on their own for the new season. The new meat schedule means the net return to farmers for some grades of lamb will halve. The only ray of light in this grim scenario is the promised Government relief package which will be announced in the next week or two, and targeted to those farmers most in need. A case study of the Canterbury farming community - how are they faring? This is followed by a studio discussion with Agriculture MInister Colin Moyle and Federated Farmers spokesmen Peter Elworthy and Tom Morton.
