Hey Farmer – get used to it

'We need water - lots of it'
In his 12 years farming his Waikato sheep and beef station, Grant Vercoe can't remember a summer as hot as this one - nor one which has caused him so much grief. "We've been dry in the past but these are the worst conditions I have seen by far, it's been pretty bloody tough," he said. "We need water - lots of it," he said.

Hey Farmer, get used to it, those drought conditions will only get worse as global warming predicts more and more extreme weather conditions, globally crops are failing pushing wheat prices up 49% in one year, where is Federated Farmers President Charlie Penderson and his comments that environmentalism is an anti human movement waging war against humanity? Where were those Farmers when they were protesting the Fart Tax to cut our methane emissions which are part of the global warming problem? We are in the period of consequences now, you gotta reap what you sow Mr Farmer man, sadly you can’t grow anything to reap. I love how thereis no mention of glbal warming at all in this news story, or even when Jim Anderton was on Narional Radio for a 15minute interview, forget global warming 'awareness', we are in denial.
