@bernardchickey This helps explain the lack of productivity growth or increase in GDP/capita in NZ. We can’t attract or retain our own talent due to low wages and are left picking up the scraps of the worlds employment pool.
@mysticmma1 @KirkSerpes @Curiousfox15 For example… if I had $4M to invest in farming. Would it be better to invest that in land for dairy/meat or for planting trees?
@mysticmma1 @KirkSerpes @Curiousfox15 But the narrative is that planting trees is more economically beneficial. So if that is true, wouldn’t that be a good replacement?
@mysticmma1 @KirkSerpes @Curiousfox15 Wouldn’t it be replaced with carbon credits becoming a primary export? Also if it does require less labour input, it could free up labour for other sectors without having to increase immigration
