Opportunity
Farmers for too long have had to accept perennials that don’t go the distance and fail them and their stock when they need them most. New Zealand farmers, especially those in dryland areas, know they need to toughen up the resilience of their perennial pasture. Droughts over many years only reinforce this changing climatic fact.


Solution
A powerful campaign using one of New Zealand’s toughest men, Buck Shelford, tells his own infamous story of toughing it out on the rugby field and challenging farmers to share their own tips on toughing it out when it gets hard to help fellow farmers.
