In touch with farmers

I would like to commend the Farmer’s Weekly editor on her editorial – “Small towns under threat” (20 January, pg 4).
I am sure there are thousands of small farming communities that are experiencing this very dilemma.

The poor state of the roads and lack of service delivery by the “monkeypalities”, as many might say, are going to be our demise if drastic action is not taken.

I remember the day Chris Burgess (former editor of FW) announced that he was jumping ship and many people said Farmer’s Weekly will never be the same as he was known for his no-holds-barred leadership.

Many people asked me ‘‘do you know this chick Alita?’’. Yip, she has always been there with Chris. You have held the flag high and surely silenced many critics.
