Stephen Todd: Nelson Federated Farmers President says stock control laws proposed by council are impossible to comply with

Farmers says a stock control bylaw being proposed by the Tasman District Council, will be impossible for farmers to comply with.The council wants farmers to hold sheep 50 metres back from a road, while moving stock until all cars have driven past.There's also a suggestion the new bylaw has a 'no-poo' requirement when shifting stock.Nelson Provincial Federated Farmers President Stephen Todd told Tim Dower it's unworkable.He says there may be the odd incident of sheep and cars colliding - but keeping them 50 metres back wouldn't change that.LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
