8/28/2008 Carbon tax a threat to farming viability
Hororata farmer Gavin King would rather slaughter his sheep and cattle than pay an estimated $168,000 a year in carbon tax for belching and farting livestock. He said few farmers seemed to realise the full implications for their farm business of the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) to reduce global warming. Many farms would fall over depending on the final tax rate and it would severely hurt service industries, he said. "We could survive, but I am not going to pay carbon tax on my animals farting and burping. "I will kill all of them before I do that if it goes to that level, too right." King said he was prepared to pay carbon tax for greenhouse emissions from fuel used on the farm, but not for livestock emissions of methane and nitrous oxide. "I cannot accept a tax on animals doing a natural thing," he said.
