Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life does just that, telling stories of New Zealand farmers, agribusiness entrepreneurs and even a couple of scientists. Each one knows about sweat, quick thinking and the importance of a sense of humour in the world of agriculture.
From a dive into farming history to a probe of modern agri issues, Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life shows farmers at their finest and in some cases – at their most vulnerable. At heart, these stories explore why farmers do what they do, rather than how. So, put on your gumboots and let’s take that road less travelled.

Author

Tim Fulton grew up on a sheep and crop farm at West Eyreton in North Canterbury. Inspired by family farming stories, as a journalist he has written much about the transformation of farming since the early 2000, when agriculture first started to emerge from being a so-called 'sunset industry'. Tim loves telling rural stories, helping readers to understand the joys and complexities of life on the land.
