Agricultural Conference Highlights for Ashburton Association
Ashburton Agricultural and Pastoral Association reports from Wellington show support for technical farming schools, compulsory sheep earmarking, and better fire safety. Delegates urge South Island representation, show-date autonomy, and a potential South Island conference separate from the biennial gathering.
Experimental farms urged for South Island test
A conference proposal favors establishing experimental farms in the South Island for practical testing over lectures. Mr Upton suggested Christchurch as next year’s site, noting conferences foster useful idea exchange among practical farmers and aid the Department of Agriculture through attendant officers gaining expert advice. Natal grant for delegates expenses approved. Upton and Blackley receive thanks.
