Physiographic Zones To stipulate what farmers can and cant do on the zones is taking to far.

Rule 20 (d) Rule 22 (b) To say that Dairy farming is a non-complying activity is too strong a stipulation, it would adversely affect property values and future opportunities. Dairy farming and winter grazing be a discretionary activity. Rule 23 Intensive winter grazing. The 20 & 50 ha's mentioned in (b) (III) & (iv) be allowed to be greater on larger properties. A formula be created so that larger properties are not penalised Add further pages as required please initial any additional pages.
