[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 7610275, member: 946"] God its all a bit depressing isn't it. On the other hand I've just watched the latest Country Calendar episode that was about a 23 year old North Island woman who ran the stock on her parents 2000 Ewe farm, currently building up her own cattle herd by buying cheap wild horses, breaking them in and selling them on to pay for it. She's also a district councillor and is studying politics. Loads of energy and enthusiasm and currently buying her way in to the family business. Seemed to be a hunter too. Not a mention of subs or government support in the whole show, just a keen young farmer who loves the industry. No real point to my ramblings, just thought the two outlooks on farming were complete opposites. [/QUOTE]
