Abstract

Introduction Farmers are deluged with information on commercially valuable or politically topical issues. Information that is not politically or commercially driven may still be vitally important to a pastoral farming business and farmers need to consciously try and fill the gaps. This quote from Johnathon Swift seems appropriate: "That whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together."
