Drought-stricken farmers still struggling

From Morning Report, 8:22 am on 4 May 2020

The situation is expected to worsen for farmers in drought-hit areas over the next few months, with hopes of any decent grass growth before winter quickly diminishing.

Parts of Northland, Hawke's Bay and the Corromandel Peninsula are among the worst affected and farmers there are being encouraged to put plans in place, to help get them through.
