WELLINGTON - Jacinda Ardern won over many New Zealand farmers with effective Covid-19 policies, but the influential rural bloc has soured on her as out of touch, weighing on the chances for the prime minister’s successor to stay in power.saying she had “no more in the tank” after five and a half years marked by upheavals such as Covid, a massacre of Muslims by a white supremacist and a deadly volcano.
Rural voters say reforms by Ms Ardern’s Labour Party, meant to improve the environmental impact of farming, are costly and ineffective. Farmers worry that the extra costs and work will make their products more expensive and less competitive in foreign markets. The rural vote has now largely swung back, angered at Labour’s efforts to reduce water pollution from fertilisers and animal waste, change the leases on high country ranches and overhaul water infrastructure. The government has proposed an unpopular plan for farmers to pay for methane emissions from their sheep and cows.
“The rural sector and the provincial sectors that feed off the rural sector feel they’ve just had an avalanche of regulation piled onto them in the last five years,” Ms Morten said.
