Thread: Pureora North Block 1080 drop

1080 aerial poisoning operations cost on average in excess of $57 per ha. Most trappers get paid nothing and pay their own way through recovery and sale of skins, fur and meat. The 1080poison industry is a scam directed at killing all introduced wildlife while sustaining massive unproductive bureaucracies. For every hectare that a trapper can recover possum products at zero cost from, another hectare is created that could have a $114 subsidy placed on it without any increased cost to the farmer, forest owner or taxpayer. When you work through the figures it becomes pretty obvious what is going on in reality.
