Fonterra discharging nitrogen-heavy water onto ghost farms Farah Hancock © RNZ/Vinay Ranchhod Fonterra cleared the cows from 16 farms and is using the land to dispose of wastewater, which could be leaching a colourless, tasteless and odourless pollutant into private drinking water supplies. © RNZ / Claire Eastham-Farrelly It was on his runs that Neville Ross first noticed cows were slowly disappearing from local farms. In 2017 most of the stock vanished from two farms. A year later they disappeared from a third Cambridge farm. Some places you realise there s no animals - at all - for like a year. Neville s not a farmer, he s a cop and has been part of Waikato s police force for 42 years.
