Recent rains have had many farmers smiling in some parts of New Zealand, after a long, dry and hot summer – and a hangover from last year’s drought conditions.

The rains reached many – but certainly not all – who need it.

This week we want to know how our farming readers are shaping up as we head into April – traditionally a wetter month, with rain bands coming from the west and south.

So let us know by voting in this week’s poll, and tell us where your farm/property is in the comments below!
