Between 1973 and 1975 four local pastoral leases applied for and were granted reclassification of their lease to crown renewable lease tenure, which allows the leasee the right to purchase the fee simple (the freehold title).

More and more visitors are seeking an active holiday experience, rather than a passive look at scenery through tour bus windows.

I feel that Councillors receive little indication of what people think. The questions cover the central issues and philosophies and seem to work from the premise that we want to retain, and … Read more

The typical New Zealand farmhouse is set back from the road, not too close to any nearby houses. Surrounded by paddocks, it usually has a garden of flowers and shrubs, and often some screening with bigger trees or hedging.

The co-operative movement in New Zealand has been going for over 100 years. During this period of time there have been many notable achievements and also failures. One of the saddest aspects of this period is the lack of documentation. With my somewhat limited resources I will endeavour to do an assessment of farming co-operatives … Read more
