The Islington-? DEL? KIK? HOR?
I guess it never helped that the CP irrigator was circled as well

I have no idea where it was taken. Other than its clearly rabbit country.

Too much detail required for my tiny brain.

All I know is that it's 220kV AC not DC, and it goes to churchur to keep the lights on, and the first stop on that journey is at islington.

Very shortly this whole area will be renamed the Nitrate Plains.....

I don't like Eugenie Sage, having actually met her, but she's right that dairy herd numbers must be reduced.

Both cows and sheep both pee nitrogen
its now just the cows are also on the cropping farms as well.
Funny enough the largest users of water and nitrogen are actually horticulture cropping wheat, barley lettuce etc
You can blame the farmers for using the land in the way that gives them the best financial return look to why dairy is a better return than lamb beef or deer or wool.
