I do support the opportunity for rural land consents in the prime agricultural zone. I feel as long a mds can be achieved, there are many places in the agricultural zone where infilling of lands can create housing without any detrimental effect on agriculture.
I also feel farmers will still have control over whether they have any desire for land consents or not, as owners of the land.
I have a smaller parcel of land, 3 hectares, which I feel would be put to better for housing, where there is already housing on adjacent sides and across the street.
