A new structured plastic recycling program is being developed for the rural sector, based on a consultation document presented by AgRecovery to the government.

The new rural recycling scheme is targeting four major plastics – silage bale wrap, plastic agrichemical containers, large fertiliser bags and smaller bags.

Gerald Piddock's Farmers Weekly article highlights an innovative step towards a greener future in rural New Zealand.

Ever given hammock camping a try? Many swear it's more comfortable than their bed at home. Bonus: it's ultralight!

A few tips: Sleep diagonally, so you lie flat instead of like a banana 🍌 don't tension your hammock too much to avoid shoulder tension and gain good support for your lower back.

Here's what you'll need:

- A hammock (duh!): Kathmandu sells a travel hammock for just $119.98

- An underquilt as a thermal layer: Gearshop - Quality Outdoor Equipment sells the Alton Ultralight Underquilt starting @ $419.99.

- A tarp cover (in case it rains): Wild Earth sells the DD Hammocks Tarp for $69.50

-*Optional, an insect net for those nights near the water: Mountain Warehouse, Gearshop - Quality Outdoor Equipment, and Wild Earth each sell different models at affordable prices.
