Hastings Update
Regional average spore counts have reduced again to 8500, there have been a few hotpots (80,000 on Omaranui Rd) outside of the farms doing weekly monitoring so the best advice is to monitor the spore counts on your pastures to assess risk more accurately.
Waipukurau Update
The trend at the moment is continual decline in spore counts to levels considered low risk, some spores observed during counting are old and degenerating and therefore less toxic. Cooler overnight temperatures and dry conditions are limiting spore growth. The season may not be over yet though yourself with current spore counts and keep monitoring
