Crafar Will Defy Receivers

Embattled dairy farmer Allan Crafar is still insisting his farms won't be sold.

In the wake of a failed bid by SOE Landcorp, Crafar farm receivers KordaMentha are now examining other bid's for the Crafar's $200m farm portfolio.

But Mr Crafar says the sale won't go through because he will raise the money needed to bail himself out before they get a chance.

“That’s the least of my worries – I’ll be paying the bloody debt off before then, and it’ll be irrelevant. You’ve got no chance of winning in court in Auckland against that big network. No chance.

“They (Landcorp) were never in the race, they were just trying to pick up something cheap. And it’s not Landcorp anyway, it’s Ross Green, Trevor Farmer and those guys – just trying to pick up the farms on the cheap.”
