Sunny weather, but cooler mornings greeted many North Island people this week. In Bay of Plenty the first of the Sun Gold kiwifruit are being harvested in sunny conditions. Kiwifruit are also being picked in Poverty Bay and Northland. On the West Coast of the South Island lots of silage is being made, paddocks are being cultivated and remedial work on damaged pasture is underway.
