Sinopsis
Lately, a subset of farmers have been refusing to fill in the Agricultural Census, despite it being a legal requirement. Groundswell is a driving force behind these farmers, as they're united in wanting to protest the Government's emissions tax. Co-founder of Groundswell, Bryce McKenzie, says that he's noticed this protest is having some effect on the Government, as they've extended the Census collection deadline. "We're not saying we don't want to do this, because there's a lot of good that can come from doing a Census as well. But what we're saying is- let's change the metric so that we're actually getting fair value for what we're doing." LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
