Intensive Farmers, Irrigators and any large power consumers will be reevaluating budgets as power costs are set to double and in some cases triple. One intensive farmer expects to pay $90k this year, up from just over $40k last year.

Farmers say that the cost of power and the increase in council rates are getting out of control
