Does Alan Emerson work for Fonterra?

Dunno man.

OK, I was struggling to follow how you went from:

"Fuck off with the criticism of payment for the initiative as well."

To:

"Fonterra, if you want to monopolise farming, to force farmers to be part of your cult, and be afforded the luxury of influencing legislation, then stump up for the privilege and help them out you ballbags."

I guess the two statements weren't directly linked.

I think what we can all agree that this article proves once and for all is, townies are full of shit.

Point being don't deflect responsibility for sustainability to share milkers and working family farms.


Get some Uncle Dad.

Blame cow cockies for it all, nothing wrong with beef and sheep farmers. Better bloody people for a start before we go into the whole pollution argument.

Share milkers typically aren't responsible for costs associated with farm maintenance/improvement, e.g. fencing. That falls to the land owner side of the contract. But I agree, Fonterra putting some cash into the game wouldn't hurt. Given the farmers are the shareholders is the result same in that ultimately it comes out of the farmers pocket? Not sure exactly how that works to be honest.

Had to look up Uncle Dad, too obtuse for me bro.

Ha Ha. Look at the cow cocky.

Let's just say, it is not the management that gets reamed when a ridiculously deregulated speculative financial model based entirely on a single raw product is at the mercy of international markets.

I get it dude.

And by association all dairy farmers. I can relate to Mr. Emmerson's defensiveness. It's equally unhelpful for him to be pointing out your jobbies in the Avon, but that's where this argument seems to have ended up. Good versus evil.

P.S. Wasn't quite sure what your cow cocky taunt was intended to convey.
P.P.S. Your jobbies are in the Avon.

No it hasn't. It's facts versus a marketing campaign.

Cow cocky was in response to Doorz comment.

In a few weeks my jobbies will be buried deep on various west coast beaches and alpine forests. Anyone I catch releasing jobbies in the water will feel the cold steel of mine shyte-stained shovel.

Nice. Enjoy.

Isnt it Golden Shears weekend?

Yep it is/was.

I think a frank assessment of infrastructure may be needed in the face of this relentless increase in tourism.

Fucking savages. Some rest stops on roads to nice places are absolutely littered with turds and toilet paper. This really pisses me off.

They need them at rest stops man. It's pure filth.
