Key differences

How the government proposal differs from He Waka Eke Noa:

● The farmer voice in governance and

price setting has been removed

● Recognition and reward for planting

on farms are significantly reduced

● Pricing is only set with consideration

for reaching targets

● It collects more money than is

necessary for reinvestment

● Farmers have no ability to form collectives to report and reduce emissions

● There is no decision on pricing

fertiliser at the farm level

● It introduces a processor-level backstop if implementation is delayed.
