The Pallet Kingdom - turning wooden trash to treasure
BODY:
Not many people can claim that by breaking a table, it leads them to a unique social and business opportunity. However, that's exactly what happened when Gabriel Acuna-Carvajal sat on a table in a flat he shared with his partner Adriana Avendano Christie. But instead of allowing him to go out and buy another one, Adriana purchased a circular saw and got to work fashioning a new table out of pallets from a construction site. And when a friend asked to purchase it, the seed for a new project - The Pallet Kingdom - was planted.
EXTENDED BODY:

“It was a beautiful accident… we looked at each other and thought we have a business opportunity here, let’s work it out.“
Not many people can claim that by breaking a table, it leads them to a unique social and business opportunity. However, that’s exactly what happened when Gabriel Acuna-Carvajal sat on a table in a flat he shared with his partner Adriana Avendano Christie. But instead of allowing him to go out and buy another one, Adriana purchased a circular saw and got to work fashioning a new table out of pallets from a construction site. And when a friend asked to purchase it, the seed for a new project - The Pallet Kingdom - was planted.
The social enterprise business was established in 2014 with the couple fashioning disused wooden pallets destined for the landfill, into pieces of functional furniture. From chairs to bookcases and even greenhouse trestle tables for a South Auckland school project, the couple’s furniture is making an impression. Pieces have been used at Auckland Council events, a TEDx talk, and walk into any number of café’s around the city and chances are you’ll wind up sipping your flat white whilst sitting on a Pallet Kingdom stool.
But the project isn’t about making a quick buck. Rather, it’s about giving back to the community. The Colombian-born couple invite young people suffering from mental health issues, or migrants struggling to find work, to help build the furniture with them in their Mt Roskill workshop on a contract-by-contract basis. “We designed a business model where we can have a significant social impact… not just preventing those pallets from going to landfill but also involving vulnerable communities; refugees, people going through depression or international students in hardship… and at the same time promote sustainable practices,” says Gabriel.
According to a recent Slate magazine article, for such an invisible object nearly 2 billion are used every day in the United States alone. But Adriana says this workhorse that helps move the world, does have lifespan of between 5 to 7 years. But one man's trash is another's treasure and while they can't save them all, Gabriel and Adriana estimate they've so far stopped 1,800 pallets from heading to Auckland landfills. And businesses wanting to dispose unwanted pallets are now calling the couple on a daily basis.
Adriana credits her strong work ethic and social enterprise skills in part to her grandparents Lindsay and Denise Christie, a pair of New Zealand missionaries who moved to Colombia in the mid-1960s and devoted their lives to helping others there. Both Adrianna and Gabriel say the establishment of the Pallet Kingdom is their way of saying thank you to them for their work.
And while Gabriel has not been able to readily swing a hammer over the past few months due to a back injury, he has been taking care of growing the business while every morning Adrianna heads down to the workshop under their house to tackle the growing number of pallets that need pulling apart and crafting into furniture.
The next step for the couple is to extend the workshop into their backyard to increase production and to help even more people who need a hand to get back on their feet. And they also want to share their intellectual property by showing people how to build their own pallet furniture via a YouTube channel. “This is our kingdom and we’re reigning it,” says Adriana. “But we’re wanting to get a lot of people on board, impact youth and help the environment as well.”
The couple's living room also acts as their showroom

Fijian Farming
BODY:
A group of Fijian dairy farmers has been visiting New Zealand looking at technology and farm management techniques that could be put into practice or adapted to suit their farms. New Zealand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade has set up a Fiji Dairy Development Programme that aims to increase milk quality and milk production in Fiji and to increase the prosperity of its dairy farmers.
EXTENDED BODY:
Fijian dairy farmers Camille Compain and Hirdesh Nand and the National Agricultural Fieldays.
A delegation of 12 Fijian dairy farming representatives has just left New Zealand following a tour looking at farming practices and dairying technology here.
They're part of a Fiji Dairy Development Programme sponsored by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
One of the New Zealand consultants to the programme, James Allen from AgFirst, says it's a five year programme that aims to increase milk quality and milk production in Fiji and to increase the prosperity of its dairy farmers.
There are about 400 commercial dairy farms in Fiji and the annual milk production is 10 million litres.
However that needs to grow to 70-or-80 million litres to meet domestic demand, James says.
Dairy farmer Hirdesh Nand has a herd of 70 cows in Fiji's Western Division. He milks three cows at a time on temporary equipment.
His farm was set up three years ago on Crown land that has been taken out of sugar cane.
Fijian dairy farmers get paid 80 cents (F) per litre. By comparison, New Zealand farmers will have a payout of 60 cents (F).
"At present it is quite good...compared to sugar cane farming it's really a good farming," Hirdesh says.
He says he has been particularly interested in pasture management and calf selection techniques and has been impressed by the way New Zealand farmers produce their own supplementary feed on farm.
"After my tour, what I am going to do is to improve my farm to a better level so that I can increase my milk production to get more productive in future."

QE2 National Trust
BODY:
The QE 2 National Trust has just celebrated the signing up of the 4000th covenant. The first parcel of land which belonged to a key trust founder, Gordon Stephenson, was signed up in 1979. These days the trust receives more applications for covenants than it can cope with. Its success comes down to landowners joining up voluntarily and retaining sole ownership of the land, while the protection order over the land is in perpetuity.
EXTENDED BODY:

QE2 Celebrates 4000th Covenants
When botanist and environmentalist David Bellamy visited New Zealand and heard about the QE2 National Trust, an organisation which uses covenants to protect parcels of land in perpetuity, he gave the concept the thumbs up.
The nearly 40 year old trust has just signed up its 4000th covenant and speaking at the celebratory event, host and Cambridge sheep and beef farmer Bill Garland quoted Bellamy, saying “nowhere (else) in the world can he think of landowners stepping up, or lining up , to protect areas of biodiversity in perpetuity.”
The milestone covenant was established by Waikato farmers Keith and Margaret Ormsby.
They’ve protected several areas of native bush on their farm and fenced and planted up all 12 streams which originate on their property and eventually end in the Waikato River.
Margaret Ormsby says they’ve planted 27,000 natives and will plant many more to enhance their covenants.
Trust co founder and first covenantor, Gordon Stephenson, says he’s not surprised at the success of the trust, even though at the time it was set up (1977) farmers were being encouraged to fell bush and plant grass.
“Lawyers and accountants warned against damaging one’s asset values, but they were wrong. The trust tapped into a latent conservation attitude.”
He says the dam that burst has been flooding ever since and he was thrilled to be part of the organisation which has been registering over two new covenants a week, for years.
