In New Zealand, thousands of animals died after two ships transporting them sank. All export of live animals was banned, and now the ban is becoming a symbol of urban-rural divide. In one sinking in 2020, 41 crew members and 6,000 cattle on board the ship Gulf Livestock 1 all died. Now, animal rights activists are celebrating the ban, but farmers and rural communities are concerned over the economic impact. The opposition National Party argues it could reduce GDP by up to $472 million. Now, it's becoming an issue ahead of this year's elections.

Livestock exports by sea are set to stop next year after the government passed a bill to ban them…  Agriculture Minister Damien O'Connor said the ban would protect New Zealand's reputation for world-leading animal welfare standards, highlighting The Gulf Livestock 1 tragedy in September of 2020, where 6000 cattle and 41 crew died…  But what will the cost be to farmers and rural communities…  Joining us on REX to discuss it is the Chair of the Animal Genetic Trade Association, Mark Willis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The livestock export transport company Wellard has recorded a Net Profit After Tax of $1.9 million US dollars, up from a $200, 000 profit the previous year. It's been a challenging year for the WA based agribusiness with one vessel, the MV Ocean Ute, in extended dry dock and the sudden, temporary closure of the New Zealand live export industry, after the tragic sinking and loss of life on the Gulf Livestock 1. The downturn in cattle exports from northern Australia to Indonesia and Vietnam, also resulted in Wellard shipping a lot more breeder cattle to North Asia in the 2021 financial year. The National Trade Lamb Indicator broke through the 950 cents a kilo barrier, eclipsing the 949 cent high point recorded in 2019 and 2020.

Debris thought to be from the missing cargo ship, Gulf Livestock one, has been found close to where it sank near the Tokara Islands, in Japan. It's raised the hopes of family members, including two New Zealanders, who were on board the ship. Caleb Fotheringham reports.

Family and friends of an Australian missing since the sinking of the Gulf Livestock 1 say they've hopeful he could still be alive.

MPI has slapped a temporary ban on live animal exports after the sinking of the Gulf Livestock 1. There are demands they cease all together but banning them completely is not that simple. 

Why are some workers, such as golf course builders, actors and migrant dairy workers, allowed into the country but not shearers, nurses or tractor drivers? Federated Farmers Employment Spokesperson Chris Lewis explains. The Government has announced $500 million to fund the clean up of a waterway. Central Otago high country farmer Andrew Paterson from Matakanui Station attended David Parker and Damien O'Connor's visit. 2020 has brought numerous challenges that have tested rural communities’ ability to do work and life online.

The manager of a livestock export company says Chinese importers are baulking at signing contracts with New Zealand and the country could soon drop off the radar as a supplier following the Ministry for Primary Industries ban on live exports. MPI is conducting a review into the safety of live exports following the capsize of Gulf Livestock 1 two weeks ago. All but three of the 43 strong crew, which included two New Zealanders, are unaccounted for and nearly 6000 cattle were lost. David Hayman, is the managing director of livestock export company Genetic Development New Zealand. He says the ban is threatening livelihoods.

Friends and family of two missing stock handlers are hoping satellite technology can find signs of life in the South China Sea. It's two weeks since the Gulf Livestock 1 capsized in a typhoon off the coast of Japan while carrying 43 crew and nearly 6000 cattle. Katie Todd reports.

"We're just regular people looking to bring our mates home"  Lukas Orda is one of two Aussies who are missing after the Gulf Livestock 1 ship sank. Lukas' family are pushing for the air and sea search to continue. The best man at Lukas' wedding Trent Jorgensen has spoken to Cliffo & Gabi.  See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.

The Ministry for Primary Industries has launched an independent review into livestock exports by ship. The move was sparked by the capsize and sinking of the Gulf Livestock 1 in the East China Sea, which had 43 crew, and nearly 6,000 cattle on board. However neither side in this contentious issue is happy. Rural reporter, Maja Burry, has more.

The friends and family of the missing Australians on board the Gulf Livestock 1 have launched an online campaign to pressure the Australian government into supporting the search for Will Mainprize and Luka Orda in the East China Sea.

The parents of missing Lochie Bellerby who was working on the Gulf Livestock 1 are calling on the Government to help with expanding the search in the East China Sea. 

Family of the crew members who died when The Gulf Livestock 1 sank in the East China Sea may be able to take legal action. The ship went down in a typhoon after it lost engine power and was then hit by a huge wave last week. Forty-three people, including two New Zealanders were on board, as well as nearly 6000 cattle. Nelson-based maritime lawyer, Peter Dawson told reporter, Andrew McRae there are ways of making a claim, but the process would be complex and take time.

The Japanese Coast Guard has called off its full-time search for Gulf Livestock 1, the live export ship that went missing in a typhoon in the East China Sea. That leaves 40 crew members, including two New Zealanders, unaccounted for. The family and friends of one of two Australian crew members, Will Mainprize, say that the decision to call off the search is premature. One of those friends, Tom Suttor, works in the cattle export trade himself, and sailed with Mainprize on a number of occasions. He speaks to Susie Ferguson.

The government is being urged to make a quick decision on what it's going to do about live export ships, as thousands of cows on quarantine farms face slaughter. The Ministry for Primary Industries put an immediate halt on applications for live shipments after the capsize and sinking of the Gulf Livestock 1, which went down in a typhoon in the East China Sea nearly a week ago. There were 43 crew, including two New Zealanders, and nearly 6,000 cattle on board. Now farmers say they need clarity on when, or if, the export trips will be able to resume. Andrew McRae reports.

The Foreign Affairs Minister says the government is doing all it can to support the two New Zealand families with loved ones on board the missing Gulf Livestock 1. The search and rescue mission for the cargo vessel has been suspended because of bad weather, with Japanese authorities saying no time has been set for resumption. Forty of the 43 crewmen remain lost at sea, including two New Zealanders. Harry Lock reports.

Farmers are worried the suspension of live cattle exports could have major ramifications for their industry. Cattle exports were suspended last week following the capsizing and sinking of the Gulf Livestock 1 in the East China Sea. The search for survivors, including New Zealanders Scott Harris and Lochie Bellerby, had been on hold for the last few days after a second typhoon battered the search area. That weather has eased and late yesterday a Japanese coastguard aircraft resumed the search around the islands off the south west of Japan. But nothing was found. Damien O'Connor is the Agriculture Minister. He speaks to Corin Dann.

The family of a man missing after the livestock export ship he was on capsized and sank in the East China Sea says the government is not doing enough to find him. Father of two, Scott Harris, was one of two New Zealanders on the Gulf Livestock 1, along with 41 other crew and thousands of cows. A second typhoon was due to hit the area over the weekend. Despite that, his mother Karen Adrian says the family has not given up hope of finding him alive. She says the clock is ticking and she wants the Government to help with the search and rescue efforts. RNZ was put in touch with Adrian by the National Party's Simon Bridges. She told RNZ's Hamish Cardwell it was her son's first time at sea.

Further fears for welfare of the crew of Gulf Livestock 1 after it disappeared off the coast of Japan with a shipment of cattle from New Zealand. Meat processors concerned about the Victorian governments plans for moving out of lockdown.

The Gulf Livestock 1 ship left New Zealand carrying almost 6,000 cattle bound for China, when its engine failed in the midst of Typhoon Maysak.

Things aren't looking good for the remaining crew of the Gulf Livestock 1.Two New Zealanders in a crew of 43.And not good at all for nearly 6000 cattle...which, let's face it, wouldn't have stood a chance.The ship was off Japan and almost at its destination after nearly three weeks at sea.Three weeks...in a cage...on a ship rolling about in the Pacific.The reality is that transporting live animals by sea in cages stacked high up on each other...is pretty close to barbaric.We tolerate putting cows onto trucks because the journeys are by regulation short, and the rules around conditions on the truck, and the people who can be in this business are strict.There's a 50 page guide, covering everything from what they should and shouldn't eat before they travel, to the design of the space they're in, how they're loaded and a lot more.That same guide also applies to preparing animals for travel by sea, and managing them.But there's a hell of a difference between a few hours on a stock truck, and three weeks on the ocean.Many don't make it...stress and fatigue claims them on the way.For the cows on the Gulf Livestock 1...drowned in their cages with no hope of getting out...bloody awful.But it's not just the journey we need to think about.It's the conditions we're sending these animals to at the other end.Can they expect to live out their days in fresh green pasture...as they would here...or some grotty concrete pen in an unfamiliar climate and god knows what kind of handling.MPI has been looking at live exports on and off for a long time now...this disaster has brought a temporary halt...perhaps it'll be enough to end them, once and for all.

The search and rescue operation continues in the East China Sea for the missing Gulf Livestock 1 ship with 43 crew including two New Zealanders and a cargo of 5,800 live cattle.

The latest on the Japan Coastguard's search for a missing cattle export ship. The Gulf Livestock 1 has 43 people onboard, including two New Zealanders and two Australians. One survivor has been plucked from the sea after the ship capsized in a typhoon.

Top stories this morning... The news is not good in the the search for the cargo ship, the Gulf Livestock, no more survivors have been found overnight. A former deputy chair of the Canterbury District Health Board has delivered a blistering attack at the Ministry of Health and Treasury over its treatment of the DHB's former chief executive. Cabinet Ministers meet today to decide if the country's covid alert levels will change.. We have more on the Taranaki Green School at the centre of a political funding row.

The search is continuing for the cargo ship, the Gulf Livestock 1, which is believed to have capsized and sunk after it lost an engine during a typhoon in the East China Sea. The 43-strong crew onboard included two New Zealanders and the ship was carrying nearly 6000 cows. The Gulf Livestock 1 has now been missing for 48 hours after sending a distress message in the early hours of Wednesday morning. Only one crew member, a 45-year-old from the Philippines, has been rescued, he was pulled from the sea wearing a life jacket and told the Japan Coast Guard the ship's engine failed, then it was hit by a freak wave and capsized. What's also raising concern for searchers is another typhoon is headed towards the area the ship is believed to have gone down.. The tragedy has prompted the Green Party's animal welfare spokesperson and the organisation SAFE to both call for the end to livestock transported by sea. The Ministry for Primary Industries has now temporarily suspended live cattle exports. John Reekers is a farmer who acted as a stockman on a similar ship from Napier to China. He says conditions on livestock ships have been misrepresented, and the animals are actually treated very well.

Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters says the situation involving a missing cattle ship in the East China Sea is incredibly serious. The Gulf Livestock 1 was confirmed missing on Thursday morning. It had 43 crew, two of whom were New Zealanders, and nearly 6000 cattle on board. Peters told Morning Report he couldn't reveal much more about the incident but was talking to the families of the Kiwi crew. "This is just a serious disaster, so many lives at stake. We hope for something better but it's not a good situation at all." He still defended the practice of live exports though, which has drawn the ire of animal rights groups and the Green Party in the wake of the ship going missing. "If it was not for livestock exports this country would have no farming industry at all," he said. "The question is that we do it in a way that's safe and that it's humane in respect to animals and the people who do it."

Two New Zealanders are believed to be on board a live cattle export ship which has gone missing in the East China Sea. The vessel - the Gulf Livestock 1 - was reportedly transporting 5800 cows from Napier to a port in Tangshan, China. Japan's press agency is reporting that the cargo ship carrying dozens of crew members, including two from New Zealand, has issued a distress signal in the middle of a typhoon. RNZ rural reporter Maja Burry with the latest.
