NZ was also dumping meat early on in this lockdown, because as was pointed out regarding Canada in a previous post, the authorities failed altogether to include agriculture in their essential industries. The Candian issue has now been rectified but nevertheless a blunder of great proportions. Earlier on in our lock down (NZ) with all else that was going on I personally did not notice the meat issue.

Butchers forced to give away, throw out piles of meat after ‘essential business’ mixed messages

Anyhow, here is an update from further afield. Onions are being dumped in Idaho. Updates on other farming & ag industries also. This is all related, for those who say it doesn’t concern us in NZ. In case you didn’t notice we have been coerced into the global model for some decades now. Can’t have it both ways. EWR
