A recent survey of over 1000 dairy, sheep, beef and arable farmers found that industry confidence is at a historic low. The Farmer Confidence survey, conducted in July, found that 1 percent of farmers were satisfied with economic conditions- and over 81 percent of respondents were unsatisfied.  Federated Farmers President Wayne Langford says this is the worst result recorded since the Farmer Confidence survey was established in 2009. "We've got to stand up and take notice- our red meat sector, sheep and beef farmers have been through tough times as well, and even they're saying this is the worst confidence we've ever had."
