Hi neighbours,
Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's … View moreHi neighbours,
Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.
As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.

Masterton residents are being asked to only use handheld hoses as the district’s rivers drop to low levels.
The Waingawa River supplies Masterton’s water. Its flow rate has dropped below 1,300 litres per second – a significant reduction from normal flow.
Masterton District Council … View moreMasterton residents are being asked to only use handheld hoses as the district’s rivers drop to low levels.
The Waingawa River supplies Masterton’s water. Its flow rate has dropped below 1,300 litres per second – a significant reduction from normal flow.
Masterton District Council begins looking at water conservation measures when the river drops below 1,900 litres per second. The way water restrictions are initiated has changed slightly this year and residents should be prepared for the potential of a total watering ban.
If the rivers get below a certain level over a sustained period, the Council will be asking residents not to water their garden, either with sprinklers or handheld hoses.”
People can find out the current water restriction rating online here. There is also a water restriction rating meter in central Masterton, on the corner of Hope and Chapel Streets.
