Fighting Fund
The Farmers' Fighting Fund helps farmers fight for their rights
Fighting a modern legal battle is expensive. The fund was established with the intention to invest pledges and use the interest for legal battles. We encourage farmers to donate to the fund because:
- Farmers cannot afford to fight government alone.
- Individual farmers cannot afford to fight local bodies.
- Farmers can no longer afford to fight well resourced 'conservation' and lobby groups.
- Individual farmers cannot take on these fights, but the Farmers' Fighting Fund can.
